At the bottom of each post there is the word "comments". If you click on it you will see comments made by followers, and if you follow the instructions you may also comment and I always welcome that. I have found many people overlook this part of the blog which is often more interesting than the original post!

My blog nick-name is SIR HUGH. I'm not from the aristocracy - my middle name is Hugh which relates to the list of 282 hills in Scotland compiled by Sir Hugh Munro in 1891. I climbed my last one (Sgurr Mor) on 28th June 2009

Day 4. Sizewell to Blaxhall

First of all last night in the pub. On a timber wall at head height as I was sitting there were four pictures of assorted size but no more than twelve inches square in wildly differing frames. An Avro Vulcan photo in colour flying over the Houses of Parliament, a mediaeval engraving in orange tint of a gathering and someone being blessed by a man of religion, a sepia painting of highland cattle in a loch, and another I can't remember. It was like the find the link competition on Have I Got News For You.

The comfort of the wooden bench I was sat on expired even before the meal was served.

At Aldeburgh of festival fame I viewed ? Hambling's sculpture of a huge sea shell in stainless steel on the shingle north of the town. Some of the locals object. I don't know why, I thought it was fine

My map and info had not identified anywhere for me to stay tonight, but along the way I met a couple who told me about a YHA hostel a couple of kilometres off my route at Blaxhall - something always turns up. I arrived here at 3.30 - they don't open until 5.00.

I stopped off at the pub in Snape - no sandwiches so whitebait instead. Rooms are £90.

Will reply to comments that I see by email when signal permits, but for the mo thanks to all.
