    Thanks for all your advice. You may be able to tell I like to have a plan - and now I have one! Gonna travel via Enfield. It'll be nice as that's where my family is originally from. Thanks again x x

    He is fully mobile! And is now training with a local football team for high funtioning disabled kids - for 5 hours a week! He will manage the walk. Though it would have been nice to stop somewhere for something to eat and drink before the match. Rethinking that plan now.
