Events have rather stifled my 2012 walking plans, but here are my first six walks of the year:

No.	Location	Distance (m)	Date Walked
947	Trent Valley Way: Holme Pierrpont to Thrumpton and return	20.4	30/03/2012
946	A walk along the Stour Valley Path from Newmarket	22.1	27/03/2012
945	A circular walk from Swavesey to Oakington, Childerley and Boxworth	16.3	30/01/2012
944	A circular walk between St Ives, Warboys and Somersham	25.2	28/01/2012
943	A linear walk from Godmanchester to Yelling and Houghton	18.6	23/01/2012
942	A circular walk from Cambourne to Elsworth and Papworth Everard	17.5	16/01/2012

This included perhaps the worst named trail I have ever done, the Pathfinders Long Distance Walk.

Hopefully I will get more walks done in the next quarter...

Eject!

The following link details an RAF pilot's recovery from horrific injuries after a mid-air collision and ejection. His life was saved by, perversely, a weak joint in the chin-strap of his helmet.

An amazing read; it is well worth reading the comments as well.
