Our intrepid walkers have been striding out in faith with great vigour since they left Oxford a week ago. Not without adventures - the very first night they were attacked by wolf-like creatures as they neared the misty heights of the Chilterns - they camped out in Longbottom, had to swim the River Wye (? some mishtake shurely? Isn't the Wye in the West country? Oh, another River Wye, I see...) and yes, they discovered there really is an Oratory in London, and the Provost, one Fr Ignatius Harrison, was there to greet them. Their back-up team took the opportunity to extract yet more sponsorship money from the natives of Kensington and Chelsea. After that, Billy and Nick set off to follow the Grand Onion Canal through map-less wastes and passing legendary places like Tring and Milton Keynes. Birmingham looms!
Sponsorship has been coming in from all over the place including through our "JustGiving" button, remembering to put in a remark about the "three-Oratories walk" in the space for "messages".
