All bright and cheery......

Dave has just raised me from my sleeping bag at an ungodly hour. He has
decided (and we seem to have acquiesced) that we (Andy, James, Raphael,
Anselm and David) are going to tackle the icefall this morning, and that we
are going to do so early! The conditions look good for an acclimatization
push, but the route above C2 has not yet been fixed, and therefore it is
likely to be a two day dash to C2, and then back to base for tea and medals!

In the dining room, Dave has refused to light the fire and so it remains
cold. James is wondering how to put his harness on, and I am generally
complaining that it is cold and early.

Wish us luck...
