Let's go 'round again...

Well, Josh never did get around to finishing the blog and publishing all his photographs of his walk to Manchester. A whole year has passed in which he has fully enjoyed and excelled in his first year of university while also working to subsidise his busy life style. All year he has talked about picking up where he left off and continuing his walk to Edinburgh while raising funds for The Motor Neurone Disease Association and now that second leg is about to start. Happily Josh has found two companions at university who are just as enthusiastic about the whole thing as he is and so they will be setting off from Manchester on Sunday 26th July 2009 with a spring in their steps and a song in their hearts. Josh, Isaac and Megan will head east to Sheffield,where they will say farewell to Megan, before turning back to follow the Pennines northward.

This year Josh has set up a new blog, which he is hoping to update on route, so if you would like to follow their adventures, support the cause or cheer him on just click on the following link and bookmark the blog:

Thanks again to everyone who kept Josh's spirits up on last year's walk and for all your generous donations to the Motor Neurone Disease Association. Please join the march to Edinburgh this year in whatever way you can.
