Day 6 
Just had my porridge, gonna set off about 10 for my walk. No idea how long its gonna take... 3 hours perhaps?
Gonna have a lil cooking afternoon then, make a batch of curry and chilli
Need to get my floors mopped as well and depending how my foot is may do my DVD - although i think that was the cause of the pain!
My first graze box has arrived too.. exciting

just had a hot bath, could of stayed there all night!!
Game over for the rest of the day!
Worked out i walked 15 km, been looking through my guide and on average I will be walking 8-10km a day.. so distance wise i know where im at.. its just the altitude and twice as slow, plus inclines to contend with
