Day 5 - Ashington to Whitley Bay


Well, how’s about that then guys and gals! Managed the whole trip of around 15 miles, without walking around in circles, going in the wrong direction for hours on end and staring at the map as if it were a Chinese telephone directory. From Ashington I headed south to Beddlington, east across to Blyth and picked up the coast road down through Seaton Sluice (however you pronounce that) then on to Whitley Bay. The weather was a bit dodgy though and the gorilla had to don his cagoule for an hour or so which was like being sat in a sauna in a duffle coat and wrapped in cling film, - was mightily relieved when the rain ceased a couple of miles from the end. Met up with girlfriend Nikki for a couple of nights R and R, before I head for Roker on Monday.
