| 7 novice climbers dine out 22,000ft up Tibetan mountain |
|
A group of friends have completed their bid for a new world record for the highest altitude formal dinner.
The six Britons, most of whom grew up together in Forest Row, East Sussex, and one Australian had a five-course meal 22,000ft up a mountain in Tibet. The team wore white ties and top hats and carried up tables, chairs, silver cutlery, floral centrepieces, a candelabra and their food and wine. The meal on 3 May was to raise money for the British Lung Foundation.  More: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/3700529.stm |
