Christian Imagine treking all the way to base camp and this cunt turns up with Sherpas carrying his decks
Jules72 Have read loads of books on Mountaineering (Into Thin Air, Touching the Void etc)….and have marvelled at the dizzying feats of the climbing feats of a colleague who works out of Geneva…. but think i’ll stick to armchair mountaineering. I totally get why people do it though - incredible pastime.
Mad_Cyril Jules72 Feel similar about Polar exploration. Some great books, the books are close enough for me thanks!!
Along_the_Wire Jules72 It’s brilliant and properly, properly hard. I’m too much of a bedwetter to do anything hard mind outside of climbing walls.
Smallman1 Smallman Snr suffered a brain aneurysm attempting to climb Everest. Had to be carried down on a mountain yak and took him to 2 years to recover. All for the princely sum of £60k. No thanks.
Smallman1 Mad_Cyril 60k to carry him down, talk about taking advantage. OUTRAGEOUS Lol! Cost of the trip, thought I’d never have a hot chocolate with him again!
Smallman1 Thankfully Snr, Bry, Oakey, High Earning Hernan Catteneo and Martin Gontad have been reunited at Stanny B since!
