You know what I mean, you find this interesting looking track. "you bloody beauty" you think, this must go somewhere.So off you go, lugging your camera gear, full off expectation as to the fabulous panoramic scenes that will just amaze you at the end of the track.Never mind the heat and humidity, never mind the flies that feed on your perspiration and blood supply,never mind the shortness of breath and rocky uneven surface making it difficult to walk without tripping.How much further you think, can't be far now..
And then..you reach the end..'you ripper ' you yell..And there before you a vision splendid..Nothing, not a bloody thing..not even an interesting looking tree..So after a moment or six to catch your breath you turn and retrace your steps..how far have I come..can't be far....
