At last some Art
Before we leave for home, a moment to draw our memories though a sketch of Robin Hood. We've said our goodbyes to the NZ4, Wainwright and the C2C, time now to return back to the Bolton and reality!

Big Thanks
Big thanks to all who have kindly sponsored us! We have raised over £1000,00 for the two charities, so once thanks everyone!
Final day
Steve contemplates letting the train take the strain. Is there enough steam in him though for the final shunt to the end of the track at Robin Hood Bay?

Beggars Bridge
End of Day 12, 23miles today over the North York Moors. Sun, Wind, Rain and of course great company with the NZ4 (we will miss the friendly banter, chats and shared experience) Final treat was rainbow over Robin Hood Bay in the distance, that's tomorrow, and our final day of 18 miles to dip our feet in the North Sea. As for now our best BB treat with real coffee and cream tea served on arrival!
Fat Betty
Stopped to trade food with Fat Betty, bit like being on Swop Shop in the 70's, always end up with the left over rubbish!
Day 12
Arrived last again, just when Wendy had finished her
M&S packed lunch, special delivery to her on route.

Wainstones
Made it to top of Cleveland view point safely! Escorted with NZ2, strangely no 'wanted persons' in sight, but rumoured to be roaming the woods below.
WARNING stay on the track!
Police have issued a warning to walkers on the Cleveland Hills today to stay on the paths since a rare sighting of the legendary Wild Man of Wool-a-Wonga. A statement said "avoid all contact with this scary person" who police described as walking slowly with a limp, missing front teeth and often shouting abuse at passing walkers, in a strange accent. Advice is to stay on the path and report all sightings!

150 miles done
John bores another rambler to death, causing a chain reaction. Done 23 miles today only 50 to the seaside! Will the NZ4 be there to celebrate?
