breakfast was nice but it is raining again and hard to get up the enthusiasm for the walk ahead. Fortunately it is only a short 8-mile hop today. Btw if you are reading this please leave comments we need the encouragement.
OK - Some encouraging words from the Fallows - we think you are insane and will never speak to you again if you come home with pneumonia, dry rot, mildew or some other dire ailment! However, greatly enjoying reading the blog (esp Wilf's contribution) from a warm, dry study.
Watching the Rakes' Progress from sunny New York loft with some concern for your health. I think that you should balance out your week of wet moorland with a week of sunny tropical beach somewhere. Surely you deserve it! Keep eating many treats and sing!
Yep - buck, buck, buck up! This is the last of the rain. Slap on loads of SPF, strip down to your shirtsleeves and enjoy the sunny views! Well done y'all for getting through the yukky yuk yuk bits.
Where abouts are you? We hope you have a boat with you as it has been raining all day in Chulmleigh... (which is quite close to the "TMW").... Keep smiling :) Grace and family xx
Feel almost guilty being in the warm and dry while reading about your very wet experiences. Sending you all lots of warm and dry wishes and hoping you now get some of the weather we've got. We so admire your pluck and grit, keep plodding on.
Hello all, hope you had a splendid lunch, if you could send Susie home at some point, I'd be grateful. Weather reports looking a bit better for the next couple of days so I hope that gets to you - hope the next bit goes well! Thinking of you all.
In late May, the Purver-Rake family will be setting off across the Two Moors Way on a walk to raise money for the excellent work of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
This blog is intended to give more information about us, our 'training', the walk and the JDRF.

Congratulations Simon and Family from the South West JDRF Team for your fantastic progress to date!
We have been thinking of you in this miserable weather and very much appreciate you undertaking this challenge in aid of JDRF.
We see you have now beaten your staggering £3000 target which is wonderful. From everyone at JDRF - thank you. It is very much appreciated!
Look forward to hearing from you when you are back in the warmth and dry! Thanks again.
