Headed up to the Falklands in a force 9. Have some awesome pictures while I'm at the helm of HMS Iron Duke that I'll upload when I get chance. Force 4 is pretty standard sailing conditions.

Still awesome achievement by all those involved. Prekkie is an inspiration to us all.

Well done to them both AND John Bishop.

Saw them both talking before the London Marathon, have to say Steve Prescott looks amazing considering what he has just done and what he is going through. They deserve all the contributions they get. Well done to them both.

That is exactly what steve put on his twitter.

Very encouraging news!
