Hurrah for the summer holiday.
Be careful with Merrill's and read the reviews carefully. My first pair were incredibly comfortable, but although they were supposed to be waterproof they weren't. The second pair are, I'm so pleased with them.
They fit my feet - you really need to try on a few to see what works for you. So many don't work for me.3 -

How lovely to have a holiday to look forward to. Whereabouts in Scotland are you going? Before I moved here I had no idea how big it was. You get to the border and think ‘ooh that was quick’ and then it just goes on for ever and ever 😬"If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney4 -

I've walked to school every day this week, so that's a result. It does mean I've done over 30 mins a day brisk walking each day according to my active 10 app, so that's good, I'm not too slow Just need to keep it up. My knee is aching but it's not as bad as it was originally when I first started walking so hopefully it will soon ease off again."If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney3
