Today was about a 5 hour walk to Danbe Wiske. First half of the walk consisted of some paddocks followed by a detour that saw us walking along the side of a busy road for half hour. Then sent us walking back by the river. After a quick cheese & chutney sandwich for lunch we were directed to walk on a quiet tarmac road for about 2 hours!
About the time we were getting sick of the road (the most scenic thing we saw were R.A.F jets flying above for training) the path led through a paddock of angry steers. We decided it was best to give them some space. It also took us through a horse paddock where the horse was blocking the gate so he could get out the second we opened it. We gave the friendly chap a pat and climbed the fence instead!
We arrived into Danbe Wiske to a bunch of walkers waving us into our pub, The White Swan. Wasn't a terrible place to stay but it was really fucking cold and they didn't have any fire list! I ended up going & getting y beanie to survive through dinner. Thought maybe they had run out of matches!
Laura really wanted Fish & Chips but suprisingly the pub had none, so instead we got some meals that were heavily covered with gravy. The bar-keeper was a bit of an unwelcoming bozo.
