Long Distance Paths

I am a man with lots more ideas than time.  I do like the sense of achievement that can be gained from completing Long Distance Paths.  I first got the bug when I completed the Cotswold Way over two long weekends in 2007 (my pre-blogging days).

Currently in Progress
West Midlands Way - A 1970s Constable Guide Book, which loops around the West Midlands. 12 stages in total. 
London Spiral Walk - 5 Stages completed of a never ending loop from Kings Cross, expanding further out until I reach Gravesend.
Heart of Wales Line Trail - 5 stages completed.  Then Covid hit.  Then the tracks were washed away.  Then a massive derailment.  Line closed until 2021.  Picked back up in Sept 2021.
Saxon Shore Way - First half completed in May 2022. Not the greatest of walking along Kentish creeks and visiting micro pubs. I probably will complete it.

To be Planned
Inn Way to Northumberland - Booked and Covid cancelled. Try again in the future.
2nd half of the Saxon Shore Way - If I can drum up the enthusiasm
