A short note
- 27 Sep 06, 05:01 AM
Just to note that the majority of the team are heading back up the mountain today. I am feeling quite nervous, as I was not well last time, but if I do not go I will always wonder what would have happened. I am doing the slightly easier trip to camp one by breaking my journey at Lake camp. I will be in touch when I get back down.

Good luck to everyone as you continue your climb. I know how it feels to have doubts about ascending. If you could tell Maryam that there is a cucumber lying on a beach in Spain that is thinking of her every step of the way...

Good to know you're well enough to try again. "If at first, etc,etc.."
Climbed Pen Hill in Wensleydale, solo, for our 50th Anniversary last week. You're only doing another 8 storeys, so what?
Your cousin-in-law, Carol Mitchell (David's wife) is an Intensive Care Sister at LGI where Richard Hammond of BBC 'Top Gear' fame has been treated after a crash, causing "significant brain damage", at close to 300mph in a jet-powered car.
Not sure whether he was Carol's patient but, like us, he's now back in Gloucestershire and recovering.
Love, Mum, Dad and family.
