Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We arrive in Nepal on February 27th and expect to reach base camp by mid March. We will be trekking to an altitude of approximately 5400 meters, carrying our lives on our backs (Mike's back) with barely any oxygen and no Downton Abbey whatsoever. Why would we do such a thing?

Well we want to raise money for Cancer Research UK as cancer has an impact on so many peoples lives, whether it's directly or indirectly. 

Can someone please send Michael a carrier pigeon with all Arsenal score updates in the meantime? Mum? Zoe would probably appreciate a slice of cheesecake. We don't ask for much. But please donate.

Those who donate most generously will have the option of a photo request. You can think of any pose you would like to see either of us pull, or any message written and we will make it happen.

Thanks a million.
