The Ascent Of Rum Doodle - Tapa dura

The hilarious story of a group of endearing incompetents who set out to conquer the world's highest peak, the celebrated but seldom seen Rum Doodle (40,000-and-a-half feet). Binder, the kindly, under-insightful leader of the party, heads a singularly ill-assorted team of comic immortals such as Jungle, the route-finder who cannot find his way to any assembly point, and Wish, the scientist conducting dotty experiments on the boiling point of ice.
