Am evening with Sir Ranulph Fiennes


Recommended Posts

There was another thread on this chap and made the same post but it still makes me smile.

He was the main speaker at a sportsman's dinner about 12 year ago at the Hilton hotel in Gateshead, tyne and wear (bloody chromebook, caps stopped working again). about 45 minutes in there was an announcement to say the sir ranulph will be speaking later than planned as he got lost. i forget where he had travelled from, somewhere down south, but had missed the turn off on a1 and was in scotland. 

i can just about understand someone missing the 1st exit but to carry on all the way up to over the border? one of britain's greatest explorers? 🙂 

he turned up eventually and good craic.
