Got up this morning and feeling anxious about my lungs and chest. The weather looked reasonable, so I felt that was in my favour. I skipped breakfast and just had a cup of tea.I spoke with a doctor on Sunday, and he felt, if the antibiotics hadn’t fixed me, then I need to rethink my walk and seek proper medical attention. The walk today was mainly flat following the estuary, and walking along wooded paths. According to the guide book, many walkers find this section boring and catch a bus. Compared to the spectacular coastal views, I guess you could say that. However I quite enjoyed the walk. And to make it even better, I caught up with Steph, the guy I met last week. We walked and chatted for about an  hour before stopping for a bite to eat and a hot chocolate at a water side cafe. Steph decided to wander off the track to find a wild camp site for he and his dog. Steph is hoping to go all the way to Poole, but the dog is struggling after 8 or 10 miles. We said our good byes, as I’m not sure if we will catch up again. As I walked on, there was lots of old infrastructure rusting away along the river. I finally arrived at Bideforde and booked into an older bnb cottage, arriving there around 4 pm.I felt I was starting to look a bit shabby ,so for a 7 quid makeover, which included a hair cut and beard trim, I left there looking extremely more handsome than when I went in. I then headed back to my room, had a shower, and had some pasta at the local Italian restaurant washed down with a big glass of red.
