Hey,
Just a quick dispatch to let you know that we head off on our summit bid tomorrow night ( actually 2 am on the 19th). The Sherpas have been working tiredlesly, stocking up Camp 4 and it's just about ready for us. The schedule detailed in the previous dispatch still applies at this time. Unfortunately I will be out of contact until I arrive back in basecamp next Sunday, so I have asked our basecamp Manager, Mara, to post a dispatch, for me with details of how it all pans out. Thanks for all the support this far and it's now time to sharpen the focus for the next 7 days.
Best Wishes and Speak soon
Martin

Hey there McFly
Best of Luck on your summit bid. Time to forget about the football and get your chakra honed.
In the past a have shaken hands with some famous people: Darrwen Jackson, Alan Stubbs (Everton Legend)and David Scott, the NASA astronaut who has walked on the moon. I look forward to your return so I can add 'a man that has stood on the top of the world' to that list.
Head down, arse up.
