(I walk in Sarf London/North Surrey every day, occasionally along paths that, while not in the slightest bit remote, can be very rarely used by others. On those days I generally text a friend to let her know roughly where I'll be and at what time, and again when I get home. Also, having had a friend collapse, die and remain unfound in his flat for three weeks - possibly alive for some of that time, the autopsy was inconclusive - and another friend's estranged wife die in a similar manner, living alone I tend to make sure I keep in touch with friends and family daily!)
