    John Davies Is a Church of England vicar in Norris Green, in inner city Liverpool. He’s an enthusiastic walker and blogger, who undertook a novel way of understanding his parish, and then on a sabbatical in 2007 walked the route of the M62 motorway east to west. Notes from the podcast interview of Jonn by Andrew Stuck, recorded using Internet telephony in February 2009 and published February 2010 on http://talkingwalking.net You can read John’s blog here http://www.johndavies.org/ and read about his M62 journey by purchasing a copy of the book here http://www.lulu.com/content/1454947 Walking his parish, John cut up a map into small squares, folded them, and after breakfast each morning picked one out to define the start of the route – he would do the same to determine the end of the route - here’s the blog entry for one of those parish walks: http://www.johndavies.org/2004/05/parish-walks-1-on-rogation-beside.html John began his two month walk along the route of the M62 motorway on the 1 September 2007 from the east coast a few miles east of Hornsea. The end point was north of Liverpool close to where John was brought up as a child.
