219 steps to good health

You see those steps behind me in the photo, well there are exactly 219 of them. I had to stop around 5 times on the way up, shifted what must have been a gallon of gunk off my chest and then carried on the other side of the Malvern Hills another 2 miles to my Dads house which thank god is down hill most of the way.

My friend who walked with me didn't have to call the air ambulance but I did have him quite worried at times. Ha Ha

Tony :)

I thought you Scots walked 500 miles and 500 more, well that's what the proclaimers led us to believe. Ok MC I'll let you off with just the eight for now. I'm not sure what Arthurs Seat is so you could always do Ben Nevis as a warm up for it :) I'm sure Fran wouldn't mind!!!!

Hi Tony you have an impressive chest on the photo, that was before I read you were in for a lung transplant.

Hi, I counted the steps about an hour ago and got out of breath. I have to sleep it off now. You've worn me out.
