Rescue from Les Droites .  This piece, which is a brief retelling of the ordeal that Jamie Fisher and I suffered on Les Droites and my subsequent rescue, was first published in The Mammoth Book of Mountain Disasters (Robinson 2003, ed Hamish MacInnes)

Eight Months .  This article, published in The Observer in 1999, eight months after my accident, is actually a compressed version of two separate articles which appeared in The Scotsman a month earlier.  The article gives some flavour of what I was going through in those first few months.

Ben Nevis .  I wrote this article for The Scottish Mountaineer in 2000, soon after my ascent of The Ben, an event which captured the imagination of the press worldwide.

Marathon Diary .  Published in the Sunday Mail as part of their fundraising campaign in support of my attempt to run the London Marathon in April 2002.

The Ascent of Mont Blanc .  This article was published in the Sunday Mail in 2002, soon after my unsuccesful attempt to climb Western Europe's highest mountain Mont Blanc.  I still haven't been back to finish the job off...

Angola .  This was written for the Sunday Mail following on from my visit to Angola with the British Red Cross in 2003.

Kilimanjaro .  Written after my ascent of Kilimanjaro as part of an all-disabled team in 2004, this article was published in ??.

North Sea Yacht Race .  Published in Days Like This (Luath Press 2009), a collection of true stories by Scottish People, this is an account of a twenty four hour period during my sailing voyage across the North Sea as part of an all amputee team.

Titanium Man .  Written after I completed my Titanium Man event in 2007, this article is previously unpublished.
