    Well done Carr.
    I have the Andy Robinson book and have been looking at the route.
    Have had a good look around the net and like you cant find anything about records.

    The eyesite thing usally starts with Tunnel vision which slowly closes in to a point which is when you get the flash, AS yours happened at night you did not notice it start to happen, You need a sugar hit and your sorted. What was the blood all about though??

    Great Effort well done.

    Totally riveting and just the sort of thing many people (me included) love to read about in a book. I would argue that this story could me more popular and more deserving of full publication than some are thinking. It just needs the right publisher that understands the attraction of true stories of grit, determination, massive personal challenges, ultimate success, not forgetting the aftermath. I'd certainly buy the book, no question.

    Massive congratulations Carr. You're a hero.

    I'll be buying a copy of the book too - I collect every End to End account I can find. Warning though Kev: I'll be giving it a brief review on my website as well. I'm generally polite apart from the real stinkers - and yours is unlikely to be one of those by your writing so far.

    In fact, I might put a placeholder in my online bibliography, just to encourage you...

    Seconded... you publish it and I'll buy a couple of copies. It's an epic, mate.

    Just read this thread…. Amazing and inspirational!!! Many congratulations on an absolutely amazing adventure.

    Hope time is starting to heal your wounds and you can start to look back and be proud of what you have achieved. Hopefully the good bits will seem better and the bad....well just something to be rembered.
