About the Book

The book, the authors first, tells of the adventures of a couple of ageing ex RAF pals as they embarked on a special journey, for them that is. They decided to walk the entire Welsh coastline from the Dee estuary in the North to Chepstow in the South. The journey would take them not only into all the well known major holiday resorts but often into areas they had never heard of. There would be a variety of characters to meet and odd places of accommodation at which to stay, but above all stunning scenery could be expected as these unproven long distance walkers plodded onwards. Their main intention was to enjoy it and have plenty of laughs on the way.
