Really enjoyed this, Peter! It's been about 20 years, but I once took a bit of a walking tour within the U.K., and your descriptions certainly brought back memories of the weather, the weariness, the surrounding history and the kindness of strangers. Thank you again for sharing your writing and photographs.

When I was 17 I first read of the Sacking of Lindisfarne and the whole story fascinated me so much that I planned to write an epic poem retelling the saga. It was a project far in excess of my abilities, but reading this pome rekindled some of the magic the Abbey of Lindisfarne inspired in me as a lad, I'd love to visit it myself someday! This whole chronicle of your travels these last few months has been a joy to read, it seems to have been a very fruitful journey, thank you for sharing Peter. 🙏
