These people have pulled off quite an incredible feat. Let's all suitably doff our titfers while we're piling into the Crimble leftovers and remember that they want to hold a memorial service for all those unfortunates who didn't make it.

I can't think where they get the "cojones" from to even try something like this! The South Pole! I mean, that's quite a bit larger than even Windsor Park.

I heard the good news earlier and was dead chuffed for them.

Excellent result - well done one and all!
