Everest Climb Update

PMD’s intrepid explorer Paul Chapman has landed in Katmando and is resting before his first days trekking. For anyone wondering Katmandu is +5.45hrs ahead of the UK.
Dear all

Manchester to Heathrow went smoothly, getting from t5 to t4 was a joke. Met all 14 troops then boarded for Doha, connecting flight was delayed by 2 hours. Doha airport was like Dubai but smaller and not so glam. Spent some time with everybody now and they seem a good crowd, getting through customs and baggage collection took some time followed by a hectic journey crammed into a small bus darting round un made roads dodging motorbikes and other taxis I'm sharing a room with Peter at a very nice but basic hotel. The rest of the team have gone for a snooze but i cannot sleep so im enjoying an ice cold beer in the hotel garden.
