Continuing from Part 1:
We marched on, heading south now, with thoughts of completing the walk – and the challenge – in our minds. Not to mention, the post-walk picnic celebrations.

I live in Weston-super-Mare, close to the Mendip Hills in Somerset and I enjoy time spent outdoors, whether that's walking, camping or backpacking. My day job involved making furniture from recycled wood (I'm a furniture maker and carpenter by trade).
I have two blogs:
Olly Writes (woodworking, DIY, baking)
Walks With Olly (walking, camping and kit)
You can also find me on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. My second YouTube channel is titled 'Walks with Olly'.
White Horse Trail – Walk 7 of 7 (Part 1)
Sunday 6th August 2017
This was it. Our final walk along the ninety-mile long White Horse Trail. A very few of us were ready to complete the challenge, while others were in attendance for what was likely to be a very good walk.
I even found myself driving to the start point on top of Bratton Camp… SatNav didn’t get us close enough and it was only thanks to Andrey’s phone that we arrived where we were meant to be.
#walk1000miles – September 2017
It’s October already!
Effectively, there are only three full months left of walking for me to complete my #walk1000miles challenge…
It should be easy, right?
Olympus ‘Tough’ TG-4 Camera
A review of the Olympus ‘Tough’ TG-4 digital camera that I bought in early August 2017.
After attending surviving this year’s Port Eliot Festival at the end of July, my second Nikon camera (Nikon S9400) gave up on me and I was left with no choice but to buy something new (the thought of spending another £90 on a second repair in three years seem nonsensical, to me).
I wasn’t keen on the thought of a DSLR, as their bulky (not to mention expensive) and I’d like to use this on my walks, of course. I thought about buying another compact/point-and-shoot/£150 item but, how long would that last, given my track record of breaking them (I’m up to three, now).
So, after reading many reviews and watching the odd video online, I came to the conclusion that the Olympus Tough TG-4 digital camera may be the one for me.
