Wife puts life on hold for a year to support husband as he walks coast of Britain
A LOYAL wife has put her life on hold for a year to support her husband as he walks the coast of Britain.
Sue Morton, 62, waved farewell to friends and family as she set off to join husband Jim on his 7,500-mile trek.
She will follow him in the £65,000 campervan they bought after selling their home.
Her days will be spent knitting, watching soaps and looking after their two dogs.
Dad-of-three Jim, 61, is three months and 1,800 miles into his 15-month adventure.

Sue, of Penistone, South Yorks, said: “It’s always been his ambition. I wanted to support him.”
Jim, who is raising money for the Gurkha Welfare Trust, said: “She must be the most supportive wife in Britain.”
