RICHARD DUNWOODY celebrated his 44th birthday by successfully reaching the South Pole on Friday morning.

The three-time champion jump jockey was said to be extremely tired but elated at the feat.

Dunwoody and team-mate James Fox have walked the 650-mile journey southwards as part of the Interchange Shackleton South Pole Expedition in temperatures that have plumetted to -30C.

OH!

I read a book about a group of ladies who did similar to the SP - very interesting - not sure I fancy their toilet habits though

Fantastic achievement. Clare Balding spoke to him on Saturday by satellite link (racing from Ascot) and he sounded in really good spirits and was looking forward to coming home and having a few drinks !!
