About the Book

I've been thinking about this for a long time now, a trip from Land's End to John O'Groats, the generally held point to point challenge for mainland UK.It's a bit of a funny business this trip because Land's End is not the furthest West (that's Corrachadh Mòr, Lochabar), nor is it the furthest South (that's Lizard Point, Cornwall), I also know that John O'Groats is not the furthest North (that's Dunnet Head, a few miles west of John O'Groats), nor is it the furthest East (that's Ness Point, Suffolk).But somehow over the years this has become the route to do.For some it's a race against time, for others it a challenge for their bodies and minds, for me it's a chance to see a bit of the country, some places that I know, some places that I don't.Enhance my mind, complete the challenge, and have a bit of a holiday all in one go.The record for the nearly 874 miles, 9 hours and 36 minutes, I'm aiming for about the 9-day mark, a much more leisurely affair.Land's End then up the north coast of Cornwall, Devon, and Somerset.Then a bit of a detour through Bristol and inland to Ross-on-Wye. Follow that by Chester, Liverpool, Blackpool, and The Lake District.Before a final push into Scotland via the Isle of Arran, as I follow the Caledonian Canal to Inverness and a last 120 miles to the finish, John O'Groats.There will be beer, lots of beer, bed & breakfast places, some with flirty hostesses and very short skirts, some with lazy winging husbands, there will be forgettable hotels and good hotels.Along the way I will visit a folly in Oban, beaches in the West Country, surfer's paradise in Newquay, watch a middle aged woman try and tear off a strippers penis in Blackpool, and a visit distillery in Scotland, plus lots more.And oh, I'll have a moan, a good few moans actually. Including but not limited to, money grabbing seaside resorts, holiday parks, why a shed in field does not constitute an executive chalet, caravanners, bad drivers, hotels, and pretty much anyone or anything else that crosses my path.I had consider doing the trip wearing a mankini and riding a lawn tractor, then find someone has already done it on a little tractor, although the mankini option is still available.Instead I used my trusty but ever so slightly fragile MG TF, a car that has got me around most of Europe but a car that would never be described as reliable.I had good weather, had the roof down on my car, a got a bit of a suntan.I hope you enjoy the book. It's not to be taken seriously and I hope you don't find it too dull or too offensive.Swear words are included within this book but don't worry too much I select the appropriate words to describe each individual and their selfish actions.I enjoyed myself, I hope you do too.PS If you tow a caravan probably best not to read this, especially if you have a loud-mouthed wife and you have high blood pressure.
