About this blog

If someone had told me a few months ago that I'd be homeless, unemployed and cramming quick-dry pants and baby tubes of toothpaste into a 55L backpack for an unknown number of months out on the road, I'd have said....well, I don't what I'd have said. Probably nothing, because I would have thought they were imblanced and I wouldn't have wanted to risk setting them off. But turns out they're not the ones who are imbalanced, because here I am. For those of you joining for the first time, you can read about all the folly that has led up to this trip at http://ifiredme.blogspot.com

Off we go now, must toddle.....
