Another quick note to say that 9 of our team made it to the summit of Cho Oyu, and back down again safely. This was in the company of 6 of our fantastic sherpas! They arrived back at advanced base camp this lunchtime, and some of them look pretty exhausted, and the rest of them totally exhausted! That's what happens when you climb an 8000m peak.

We are now packing up as fast as we can, as we have 46 yaks, and need to get to Kathmandu as soon as possible. This is officially because most of the team fly out on Saturday. However, I am in desperate need of a shower, and is causing me much more concern! This is as four of us are walking up the Khumbu to sort the labs for next year, and not getting back to the UK until the middle of October.
