Today was not destined to be a big day as Vedstena had been my target after 2 days. So completing it in 3 was in one way a bit of failure but being honest with all the issues i have had to face im petty happy with making ii in 2.5 Not a bad…
Not a huge day today as I didnt get away until after lunch and i had to run an errand and drop some paperwork off as the accountant. It was also raining pretty hard so sat with my accountant and drank a cup of tea while we waited for the ra…

Today waqs going to be either very easy or very hard. It’s a good 180+ KM to Visby if I follow the route and dont cheat so I either aim to do it in one long day or break it into 2 easier ones. As I am in no hurry I chose the easier option.
