The second and last post from me for a while.  Jon is going on to chamonix and I'm self reliant for 5 weeks so no means of me personally updating the blog.  My "easy"day was still 20 miles and it was very hot and sweaty. I've stacked up on plasters, painkillers and cream for my errant muscle. I'll have a high Bivvy tomorrow then huts.  The temperature in the valley bottom is set to exceed 35C over the next few days.  I had an immediate dip in the camp site pool on getting back today. In the words of the master (doctor who fans will know what I mean) I'm so hungry.
