Ah Sherpas.... Gotta Love 'em!!!
The similarities our little expedition have with Homer Simpson go way beyond waistlines!!! It would appear our Sherpas were the inspiration for a Simpson's episode!!!
4 lads, not a pair of hiking boots between us, none of us under 96kg (3 of us in fact nowhere near 96kg!!), have decided to climb Kilimanjaro in aid of The Jack & Jill Foundation.
A charity which provides in home nursing aid to families with very ill babies.
Conor is a subtle mix of poet and philosopher. Here are some of his more profound lyrical outbursts, some inspired by the trek others (mostly) random!!!!! 1. "If you're not hurtin' you're not working!" 2. "Pain is just weakness leaving the body!" 3. On getting to the top of Corrin Hill after our first little attemt at walking he said I now know why Alexander wept and said "what now?, I have no more worlds to conquer" 4. "Burger King.... Oh dear God, Burger King" 5. "Pressure Makes Diamonds" 6. "Sorry cant make climb Lads 'cos I'm dosing cattle" 7. "There are no atheists in foxholes" 8. "You don't need to push water downhill" 9. "I'm good looking, I just don't photograph well"
