Set off before 11AM after my cuppa and cake and within 2 minutes was on a country road , which went up and down like a yo-yo at times but I suppose it was fairly flat . A big problem with travelling on these lonely country roads is that there is no where to have a lunch and you have to wait until you reach the train station but this is usually in the later afternoon. That is what happened today - at dinnertime I was getting hungry , so I asked this young lady was there a cafe or similar , but No . She then asked where I was going to and I could not remember the name , athlone , but when about 100M away from her I did . So as she said that was the only real place to get some edibles. She suggested somewhere but I could not remember the name. Jesus such a brain , or lack of same. I also was near Walderstown and the H/Head said there was a road but I was following the map and it just ended , so I had to go back . At that stage I wanted something to eat and from there I went directly to Athlone . I was going to do about 67KM but did about 64KM. Tired enough after it . So thank God that I wont have to mind the child tomorrow , Tuesday , as Xiaocui has gone to China to see her Father and others , so we will be minding Freya on Wed to Fri , and will we be tired by Frii? Ahem - Yes!
