Just a quick update - Spent the whole day packing kit and saying farewells and taking calls, texts and emails of good luck. Off first thing tomorrow to Africa and then will start mountain in a couple of days having met the team.
My kids made me some 'dog tags' to wear - I thought I would show them here
Also the flag is fab, and we have surpassed £15k in fundraising - what a delight this will will be for those at VSO. Thanks again
