Day 4 - Galashiels to Lauder

Didn't manage to get away until 9.5O mainly because Nurse Kerry had to administer to Gail's naughty toes before we left. It worked though and what a difference! Progress was slow to start as we walked from Galashiels to Melrose which took far longer than we expected and was not the nicest part of the SUW by a long way. The weather was really kind to us again - we've been so lucky! We had lots of sun and even a few flakes of snow to remind us it is May!

Unfortunately we didn't make as fast progress as we should because Old Limpy aka Kerry was suffering from a very sore heel/ankle which has hopefully been helped by the long soak in the bath at the B&B, Lornebank.

We are now ensconced in the Black Bull having had a great meal and now trying to decide what if any dessert we have earned.

More tomorrow!
