10:36 - Challenge proper

Ok, itsw been a while but i’m back briefly.  Basically this is serious stuff!  In summary, tiredness, hunger, sickness and a couple of injuries.

I’m in the bus at the base of Ben Nevis waiting for the return of Ross, Louise, Jo and Richard.  I’ve got a bad knee, John’s at the bunkhouse with a twisted ankle and the drivers are there too resting.

The fab four on Ben Nevis are coming back down because the weather is too bad and challenge mountain leaders have decided to clear the mountain.  65 MPH winds and hard rain.  These guys are hard core and I love them all.  I’m a bit emotional today so I’ll probably hate them by lunch time :)

Just boiled them some water so they can get warmed up on their return.

Blog later with some dull grey pictures and news of what happened on Scafell!
