It's less than 3 months to the commencement of lejog the long way round and I just about have all my kit. I got a great down bag and an Alpkit meths stove for Christmas and I already bought my new Osprey rucksack a couple of months ago. I will try a couple of shakedown wild camps before I go and hope I can break the beer ritual!
Kit is the easy bit- I really need to start walking,stop drinking and lose at least 3 stones before I set off. I'm also worried about funding as I haven't much saved and will be unpaid for 4 months - mortgage still has to be paid though!
I have a couple of ideas re funding but I really need a bonus in March! That is not a given as the company I work for has such a random way of trying to pick a weak target to push down and as I will be away I may well be that.
