Alison, our treasured lead alto, emailed us back in July to say she had reached the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro.

It takes a lot to separate Alison from her sax - but here she was part of a small trek party to raise money for orphaned children in Malawi. 

For once we guess she might have been out of breath as she admired the view at 6.20am on the 25 July - so the record for extreme sax playing would have to wait another day.

We'll post a photo when Alison has found the down load button on her camera.

Well done Alison!
