Farnham to Guildford 16km

Decided to do a shorter treck today to give mikes feet a bit of a rest and because the weather was so wet again. In fact we delayed our start until about 1000 as it was raining so hard and we only needed about 4 hours walking. Ate in cafe rouge last night ad we got a 40% off voucher in line. Good food as always and a nice glass of wine. Got off fine in the morning and the start of the north downs way was well marked with finger posts. In fact most of this section was well signed with just a few potential mistakes. However, the GPX file kept us on track. Stopped at a pub about half way for a sandwich and a cup of  tea!  Good time to stop as the rain got heavier again. Still it had stopped by the time we got going again and stayed dry for most of the rest of the day. Once we got to Guildford we headed for the tourist office as we could find nowhere suitable online to stay. The office were extremely helpful and found us a cheap B&B with an owner that was happy to pick us up. Good job too as it was about 2km out of town. However, ther is a route from it to the way that means we won't have to walk any extra for tomorrow. We are assured there is an ok pub '5' mins down the road for tonight - we shall see. So now washed and ready for tommorows fun. I wonder where we will finish next?
