Thanks everyone for all your lovely comments;0)
Sorry about your son Amble Simon was telling me that 35 per cent of the those who started at the same time had to drop out, I dont know how they finished as some patrts were really gruelling and they had blisters on blisters as well as cramps and tired aching limbs,He did say it was knowing we would be there at the end was a great motivator.
BB what a pity I didnt realise at the time but yes we could have met up with you that would have been great, we love Robin Hoods Bay and surrounding area so if we do decide to return we will let you know ;0)

Lovely roses I can almost smell them.

Well done to Simon and Clare on completing the Coast to Coast walk! Their present to you of those lovely roses was a great way to show their appreciation for you meeting them at the end!

I was once in Robin Hood Bay - back in 1971! I was on holiday in Whitby & we went there for the day. I particularly remember that I went into the sea & had to wade out for what seemed like miles before the water got deep enough to reach my waist! As I'm not a good swimmer - nor was I then - I got scared the tide might start to come in & I would be drowned! So that memory will always be associated for me with Robin Hoods Bay!

Thanks everyone for all your lovely comments, I will pass on your congratulations to Simon and Clare, Simon called today with two bottles of wine and a box of chocs, so we are in for a nice evening;0)
Sandra the Coast to Coast is a famous walk which was mapped out by Wainwright, It Starts in Cumbria St Bees and goes right across the country to the East Coast finishing in Robin Hoods Bay 192 miles in total,
