Right, routes have been amended.

Originally I was planning on 400 miles a day. I've halved that, and then extended the journey as a whole.

It's looking more & more like the fact that I'm not going to be able to do the whole Tripe. Time will tell.

You still planning this or is it a no go now?

The whole EU trip is probably going to have to wait. I might get over to France for a couple of days though, but I think it's probably best to start a new thread about that if I'm doing it.

The main reason is that it's difficult getting time to spend 3 weeks away from the family.

Right....

All concerned,

I feel that I've left my Europe trips too late to finish the planning. The main problem is financial planning on my side - I've looked at a couple of days in France, and for what I want to do, it comes back around the £500 mark - money that I just can't spare at the moment. Well, I could, but it'd make things so tight it's not worth doing.

So, with that in mind, the trips are offically postponed. But don't be down heartened, start saving now, as I intend to go next year.

The plan remains the same, AR (wherever that may be), then off around France (well, the northern coastline anyway). Unless the AR is in Fife or something silly.

Apologies to all who got their hopes up with the talk of this & the France trip I have been talking about - you're more than welcome to use any of the stuff I've planned thus far (including costings etc). Drop me a PM if there's anything you want to know for your own trips.
