    I'm full of admiration for the way you've stuck at it, Lorna, through thick and thin. I would have been really tempted to give up. But you kept going and brought us some of the most beautiful scenery. Many years ago i drove along the A82 through Glen Coe and remember just how overpowering the mountains around the road were. Looking forward to the next episode.

    Lorna your camera work is phenomenally excellent..Commentary, and descriptions really helped pinpoint historical and other views, for a foreigner as myself.

    Have not mentioned it yet to Jo, but the contrast of two different perspectives on this glorious content, is truly an exquisite part of the content. I love it.

    Happy for you making it, despite exhaustion and physical problems. You do have a knack for framing those beautiful landscapes in fine footage... something to further develop perhaps?

    Lorna! I love as I have said when there was boats in the area your two different ways of telling the story, you tell details from the history of Scotland and Jo talks about how you walk.

    Amazing episode, congrats for breaking through! And what fantastic scenery, unbelievably beautiful

  • @wendybrealey8368
    @wendybrealey8368 Před 2 lety

    Wow, you should feel so proud of yourself today. You have proved to yourself, not that you need to, that you can surmount any obstacle. I thought Day 2 when you got so sick it was from over exertion but the way you’ve been crook the last couple of days it’s more like a bug. In particular, if the symptoms continue back in London, get checked out for giardia, as our daughter caught it we think from water at a roadhouse while we were crossing the Nullarbor and it took us all 6 weeks of it coming and going to realise it was more than a mild bug that would go away by itself. ❤️

      The tap water in Scotland doesn’t agree with me. Unfortunately I forget this every time I go to Scotland 🙈

    I hope you don't mind me saying but you looked absolutely knackered in this and the previous episode, however your grit and determination would probably get you through the para 30 miler. Keep working on your fitness once you're back in civvy street.

    If you have an interest in history, you should read Patrick MacGill’s, Children of the Dead End. MacGill worked on the construction of the dam and the book is autobiographical.

  • @leswallace2426
    @leswallace2426 Před 2 lety

    I really do hope Lorna that you manage to introduce 'skitters' into the English vernacular, it would be so much easier for mums to put that on a sick note rather than having to spell diarheia....durheara....diarrhoea! I'm even more impressed by the way you stuck at it, and won through today.

    • @lornajaneadventures
      @lornajaneadventures  Před 2 lety +1

      It’s the first thing you learn at work from taking all the sickness calls. “You sure it’s diarrhoea and not something easier to spell?”
