Next four Acorns on my section brought in for repainting. These have been replaced with freshly painted ones. Well into Wall mile 24, all hopefully will have been repainted before the 2024 walking season starts in May. 🤔

That's all. Signing off for good. Many thanks to all who have donated over the years to the Trail and numerous charities for my hand-painted items. If you are ever on Portgate to Heavenfield section, look out for a guy working hard and say hello. 👍

A snowy view over the commanding officers house at #Vindolanda fort just south of Hadrian’s Wall. The stone trough in the foreground sits inside the private latrine room which must have been rather chilly in winter. #Hadrianswall #archaeology
