Tarmac treading
... uneventful, spent tarmac treading between Carleen and Rame Farm, unfortunately to try and achieve a south/north direction (which is our goal), it is not always possible to use footpaths.

Got into Penryn so cold and wet I needed a cafe mocha and hot tea to stave off the hypothermia. You'll be happy to know that this remedy was successfull!
Though meeting up with Jessica and then going Cornish dancing with her and a few of her schoolmates was worth every bit ...
