I got up early, had breakfast and headed back up to John O'Groats. I might never come here again (although, thinking about it, I'm sure I could do it in 7 days if I took the more direct route that most end to enders take (eg by missing out Lizard Point and heading up the east coast of Scotland instead of to Tongue ... )) so I wanted an official 'photo with the sign and the whole works.
Got to JoG; had the photo taken, had a coffee, did a little shopping (couldn't have done this without my wife and kid's support) and then headed back to Thurso to catch the train.
The wind was still blowing strongly from the east so it took me 35 minutes to do the 7 miles from Mey to JoG, but only 20 minutes to get back!
Took the train from Thurso to Inverness where I'm staying over. Three more end to enders on the train - 1 who'd camped and taken 14 days, 2 others who B&B'd and were heading home to Glasgow.
Total miles so far: 1,064.59.
