Afternoon Tea with Colonel John Blashford-Snell

On Saturday Dave and I popped down to Bristol to attend one of the official 'Tea and Cake rally dos'. The Adventurists brought along Sir John Blashford-Snell, one of the greatest explorers (and story tellers) of the 20th Century. He was hilarious and very inspiring. Warning us of the prevalence of the plague and lack of veggie food in deep Mongolia. I'm currently rethinking my vegitarian-ism.

We also met two teams that we're sure to stay in touch with. Here are their team pages:
