Grimsby


There was a 40th birthday party at the pub last night. I ate and went to bed. I soon went to sleep while watching Match of the Day. This morning I set off the alarm when I went to the loo and the landlord had to get up and turn it off. He hadn't got to bed until 1.30am! As I had breakfast the rain poured down so I left kitted out in full wet weather gear. The sun soon came out. Then it was head down for the 40miles to Grimsby. I thought I would never say it but the highlight of the day was lunch in McDonalds.

Grimsby Town was all locked up so I had lunch and set off back to Lincoln 38 miles away. I wish Grimsby had been promoted last year! The trip to Lincoln was hard against the wind. But I arrived just before 5pm. The owners of the B&B didn't arrive home till 6pm. After a shower I went into town for food and ended up in church! New Life church had about 100 in the congregation mostly students and the worship session was great! Then the preacher spoke about Rahab and making a new start. That reminded me that I was half way now having done 760 miles. So I start again tomorrow on the 2nd half of my challenge.
