Via The World: Early on I questioned why on earth I had come back to this place that nearly cost me my life
I am now a good solid few hundred miles out to sea, settling in to my new life after twelve days out here. It is always a bit of a culture shock – physically and emotionally – to start or finish an ocean voyage, particularly one where you are all alone and have oars instead of an engine.

Mr.C on his early years, family and the future

Here’s an excerpt from my interview with him.

If we don’t support them they’re gone and the world will belong to the likes of Simon Cowell. So did you go and buy something from your local record shop?
