pic updates

Day 19: Cheddar-Bristol: 29 miles

Day 20: Bristol- nr old Severn bridge: 19 miles

Good riding. Currently on Day 21.Have just crossed the old Severn bridge and into Chepstow. Now in Wales! Psychologically feeling like it's the next step of the journey, leaving the SW behind and headin through the border counties.

Here's the pics that I meant to include with previous posts. Also would be great if you can find time to read my fishy post.

One love.




Earth oven, Buddhafields, fire is lit underneath (fed by air with the trench, log is rolled back to enable access. This is a very efficient way of cooking and gives the food a beautiful earthy flavour.




Buddhafield.This is a bender, a classic form of shelter. This one is very small scale but the concept is the same. Cut young willow branches, push into earth and bend over to join in the middle with string etc, cover with canvas. If left long enough the willows often root themselves and you end up with a space that literally has a life of its own.
