Q Radio journalist Gráinne Connolly with Charlotte and Billy in Omagh

Charlotte and Billy Caldwell left Omagh today, kicking off day 2 of their 150 mile walk to Belfast. 

'Billy's Cannabus Walk'

 

Q Radio bumped into them as they were leaving the town, heading off to Ballygawley. 

Yesterday they travelled 17.5 miles from Castlederg to Omagh. 

Charlotte said the first day of the walk went really well and that Billy was in great spirits. He walked most of the way and only sat in his buggy for a little while when he got tired. 

They were due to leave Omagh Courthouse at half 9 but were an hour late in making tracks.

Billy wasn't too keen on leaving his bed this morning but was in great form when Q Radio spoke to them.
