I hobbled into Kirk Yetholm just after 5 today. It's been a fantastic walk and I was so pleased to be able to complete it. I've had this ambition to walk the Pennine way since I heard about it in the 60s so it's been a long wait - but brilliant to get here at last!

Ah the joys of a summer morning in the Cheviots
Ah the joys of a summer morning in the Cheviots - the song of the skylark, the rattle of machine guns and the boom of heavy artillery on the Otterburn firing range!

Just climbed out of the forest onto the Cheviot ridge. Destination today is Uswayford, about half way to Kirk Yetholm. I thought I might be able to do the whole lot in one go, but niggling shins made me be sensible!

Arrived at last in Byrness
Arrived at last in Byrness. A long trudge - good views across the hills in the first part but Kielder forest was not v interesting. Sore shins slowing me down a bit, but only 2 days and 28 miles to go!
