The South West Coast Path on CD-ROM!

630 miles on the South West Coast Path

by Julia R. Merrifield

ISBN 0-9544939-0-7

Julia Merrifield and her colleague have stayed at Dunkery Lodge in the final stage of completing the epic South West Coast Path, South to North (note - we are not one of the accommodations she refers to in the description below!). We have agreed to help her to promote her experiences and other information in the form of an "electronic book" on CD-ROM. This publication will be interesting to others who have completed this long distance path and very valuable to those who are engaged in this now or are planning to walk all or part of it in the future.

'My Feet and Other Animals'©

When two friends planned a long distance walk on England's South West Coast Path they thought the toughest challenge would be the walking itself. But the biggest obstacles to be overcome were not the 630 miles of footpaths, or the soaring ascents and descents of the cliffs. They were the unforeseen factors that cannot be planned for but which transform a journey into an adventure. Factors such as a torn calf muscle, recalcitrant underwear, two days of torrential rain and gales, two weeks of the hottest July temperatures for years, high tech equipment designed to help but determined to hinder, the capriciousness of public transport and a host of B&Bs all competing for the title of Worst Accommodation in the West. 

My Feet and other Animals'® is a candid and often hilarious account of their journey through some of the most spectacular coastal scenery in England. If you are a keen rambler or just an armchair walker with the desire but not the energy to experience a long distance walk, then this is the book for you. It will give you a taste of the pleasure, the pain and the sense of achievement to be gained from the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other. As well as a full length e-book, this CD Rom contains a slide show of over 100 original photographs, details of equipment used, facts and figures, acknowledgements and maps.

This professionally produced CD Rom of 'My Feet and Other Animals'® is compatible with all major operating systems and is available, priced £8.99 including PAP or purchase this CD together with Walking the Pembrokeshire Coast Path at the joint price of £15.
