Moving along nicely.


Just re-read my last blog. What a whinging git! Actually good to remind ourselves of some of the hurdles we've crossed to get to this stage. Wes and I had a bit of a re-group last week and it was great to realise how well things are coming along.

The launch party 'Sagarmatha' at The Collection in Chelsea was phenominal, (see the smiles on Wes, Vicks and my face!) Lucy and her trektators (with some help from Charlie) really did us proud.

Since then loads has been happening with Captive Minds coming on board to do our PR, we're also now finalising who our patrons will be, but with names like Ben Fogle, Bruce Parry and Alec Stewart being toted aroun you know we are firmly on the map now.

The teams are bonding well now. We've just had a Hillary nets session, and it's great to have Kiwi back in the country. My fitness is coming along nicely. Last week I ran the Cardiff Half Marathon in pads, with bat along with Skipper Glen and my cousin David. If anyone had told me a year ago that I'd be able to rattle of 13 miles I would have told them where to go.
Anyway, some people are really stepping up to the plate, and it is those people who are making this project live up to its potential. I hope that the others will find a way to make an impact in time too.
