Congratulations to everyone who attempted the June challenge! I hope to go through everything and make a roundup post within the next couple of weeks.

Have you got a link to some words of explanation for the pretty map of your A-Z project? (Only if you have time, obv.)

[nou]

Apparently I have! I wrote this when I started the project.

Essentially, I'm walking across every page of the A-Z, without going off the top or the bottom of the page (going into the margins is OK). I'm also keeping a continuous line. Oh, and I'm not allowed to cross the streams (i.e. intersect with an earlier line of walking), though I am allowed to go back on myself (e.g. I can walk down a road to get to something I want to photograph and then walk back to the intersection and carry on).

Thank you! I'm sure you've linked me to that post before but I'd forgotten. Good luck with both projects, obv.

Thanks! Once I finish the A-Z walks, I may do it again but going north-south instead of east-west. Probably starting in the southwest corner in the hope that by the time I get back to Dagenham someone will have built a bridge to Erith...

Shh! I already googled for the A-Z of Birmingham and then made myself close the tab!

(Psst... you could hire a boat? They're not actually that expensive, especially if you can find a boat owner on a local club forum who likes your idea and might only charge you for fuel.)

Doooooo iiiiiiiiit, doooooooo iiiiiiiiit.

(Good idea! It's slightly cheating in that it's not actually walking, but if it's the only way I can do it then I will!)
