Recorder set - many thanks...
Just reading about the Mallory/Irvine attempts in the 1920s, facinating reading as much of the approach was across unexplored territory - lord knows how they even got to base camp , proper adventures 🙂
Nice one, cheers for that. set to record.
In regard to climbing books, never been near a mountain , but love reading about climbing them! Just read Fiva about a slightly smaller mountain, superb.

If anyones organising a trip up Everest, count me in.
