Another quick update- Becky has just phoned home from Base Camp! Mollie and Matt were still coming down through the icefall, just behind her. She's feeling exhausted but elated, can't quite believe what she has just done. She has some frost nip on 2 toes which is very painful and some big blisters but is still hoping to be able to walk the 30 miles back down the valley to Lukla, after a rest day tomorrow. She summitted at 6am on Saturday morning (local time) becoming the youngest British female to summit Everest, although I see Leanna Shuttleworth has summitted this morning after a challenging climb in strong winds and at 18 has pinched Becky's record. Well done Leanna!!After climbing in the dark for about 8 hours, Becky watched the sunrise over the Himalayas at 5am. Seeing the curvature of the earth and the view-amazing!! She was back to the South Col/Camp 4 by 10am, so a relatively quick return journey of 13 hours in all, which she found easier than some other parts of the climb, such as up to Camp 4! Last night was pretty uncomfortable- the winds were really strong and 4 of them in a little tent. Looking forward to having Becky home next weekend!! Wishing Kenton and his group a successful summit bid too-they left Base Camp early this morning for a summit attempt early on Friday 25th. Good Luck!

It features a cute T-Rex dinosaur that runs across an endless desert and tries to avoid obstacles like cacti and pterodactyls. You can control the dinosaur by jumping or ducking with the spacebar or the arrow keys on your keyboard, or by tapping on your mobile screen. The dinosaur game gets faster and harder as you progress, and the background color changes from day to night. The game was created by Google Chrome developers as an easter egg in 2014, and it has become very popular among users, with over 270 million players every month. The game is also known as Chrome Dino, Dinosaur Game, T-Rex Game, Dino Run, or No Internet Game. You can play the game online for free on various websites, or by typing "chrome://dino" in your browser address bar. The game has a maximum score of 99999, after which it resets to zero
