For those of you who have read the classic mountaineering book 'The Ascent of Rum Doodle' the crew of the good ship Brimble are as follows:
Tom Parsons: Ships Doctor and expedition medical advisor. New to Team Brimble. Always ready to sew up an injury even when there's no injury to sew up. Has been quite a way but will definitely go far |
Cerys Organ: Ships Artist. New to Team Brimble but already demonstrated an uncanny ability to catch the moment. Has not gone anywhere but will this year. |
Rob Parsons: second in command, expert with all things electronic, has gone far enough.
Recently returned from a gymnastics seminar.
|
Selma Halsall: photographer, logistics expert and 'voice of reason', has often gone too far. |
Chris 'The Perk' Perkins: Our strong man, expert in endurance; ex-military, so can kill if necessary. Has been quite far but wants to go further. |
Phil Trotter; an expert with money, has been far but wants to go further. |
Gordon McBride; team advisor; has been further than all of us put together and then some. Trained as sub-mariner and our underwater expert.
|
Jack Halsall; ships mechanic, some knowledge of engines based on 300 episodes of Top Gear, has been further than many. Recently woke up but then went straight back to sleep again. |
Ella Halsall; has been further than many, will go far, but only if it's south. |
Colm Briggs: Expert in Tea drinking. Is willing to go very far providing there's a nice cuppa tea on arrival. |
Jerry White: South Coast Crew member. Could go far but currently lost. |
Jack Green: Biscay Crew member, sailed across The Biscay and then emigrated to Canada |
Paul Elliot, Master Mariner has been exceptionally far. Can also kill if necessary. |
Simon '4 peaks' Blanchflower. Navigation expert and technical advisor. Strength of ten tigers and the resilience of a Duracel Bunny |
Anna O'Mahony. Not been very far yet but does have the t-shirt. |

This is one of the funniest About Us/Crew descriptions I've ever read! You guys seem like you would be a hoot to go sailing with :-)
