Borders Abbeys Way 2019 Day 1

Tuesday 10th September Jedburgh to Hawick
It was a short walk today, as I left the B&B about 9 and arrived in Hawick (unfortunately pronounced Hoyk, which is the sound a NZer makes when clearing phlegm from their throat) before 2.  I didn’t write about the trail in my journal; I recall a lot of farmland, and potentially boggy forest, so I will have to let the few photos do the talking.





Hawick is a depressing looking dreary place with dirty grey buildings.  I didn’t want to stay there longer than I had to, but I had arrived early, so I hit the Wetherspoons to kill some time and had a mid-afternoon dinner of a steak meal.  Off to the B&B to shower and shave and then chill reading and using the internet while eating my packed lunch!
