Howard came up to meet me for the weekend and we thought I would have made it to the Bridge of Orchy, but after cutting yesterday’s stage short because of the thunderstorms, I was 10km behind schedule! Today was long enough so I took the train from Tyndrum to meet him at the Bridge of Orchy and we would make our way back to Tyndrum the next morning to continue the trail where I left off.
