Massive huuge thanks must go out to the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust, the Mount Everest Foundation, Expedition Foods and Sam at Wykeham Adventure Sports for making this all happen, we couldn't have done without your financial support, excellent kit and high energy sustenance (hurrah for Biscuit Fruit/Brown!).
It was an adventure, an incredible experience and it has definitely whetted all our appetites for more expeditions in the future. Indeed; it was brill!
