Hi Bob,
Indeed, I believe Capita are using a company that actually runs these things on a regular basis. I feel sorry for the porters, this is from the capita blurb: "Throughout the trek we will be accompanied by local porters who will carry all our equipment and supplies.

Thanks for the offer :) T On Wed, 20 May 2009 16:21:48 +0100 (GMT+01:00), "[email protected]" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Tony, > These expeditions are becoming very popular.
