A short stage today. Left at 5:30 a.m., arrived at 9:50 still in time for breakfast! The Royal George Hotel in Birdlip is not exactly a dump, but it is dreary as all get-out and overpriced, and there is nothing in this village except two streets. Back to breakfast: Avocado toast with poached eggs. The mushed avocado, ice cold, seemed to have just come out of the freezer; needless to say, it remained on the plate. The eggs were fine but gave me terrible cramps. All in all, not a great success. And to complain a little more, the walk today was 100% ho-hum:
There is no end to how much I can complain. The wi-fi at this hotel sucks! You practically have to say a b'ruchah to get it to connect. Oh, and there is some very loud hammering going on.
However, in all honesty, I could use the enforced rest even though it would have been much nicer to have so indulged in Painswick.
And on the plus side, the shower worked and had real hot water instead of not-hot-enough, which is the case for most showers, and the staff were nice. All in all, unlikely ever to return!
