To honor a Scots patriot

[Graham]

I shall follow with interest also. All we could manage the other week was a climb to the top of the Walace Monument, but it was worth it.

David Ross crossed the border on Saturday and has been making his way through the Lakes district. A bit of soreness each morning, but it apparently is not taking him long to walk it off. I'm told he wouldn't mind if temperatures were to drop a bit, but other than that, he's doing a great job of meeting his daily mileage quota.

Unfortunately some "other folk" decided to amuse themselves by throwing firecrackers at him, but other than that, people along the route have been supportive.

He made it!

Earlier today, David Ross crossed the Thames, completing the final leg of his walk from Robroyston to London, on the Walk for Wallace.

Following the London walk and subsequent service at St. Bartholomew on Tuesday, the commemorative casket will be returned to lie in state at the Smith Art Gallery & Museum in Stirling for two weeks, prior to The Homecoming events in Lanark, on 10 & 11 September.

And yes, I'll be in Lanark! ;)
