TARRANT BACKS NEW BOOK

Reading son Chris Tarrant has written the foreword for a book about one man’s walk across three continents.

A Man and a Pram by Mark Cundy describes Mr Cundy’s 5,500-mile walk across Europe, Australia and the USA raising money for Cancer Research UK and its overseas equivalents.

Mr Cundy, 42, an adventurer from Southend-on-Sea in Essex, approached Mr Tarrant for sponsorship before setting out on the walk, during which he pushed a pram the whole way.

In his foreword, Mr Tarrant wrote: “I thought ‘Yeah, right, walking round the world? Of course you are!’ But it was a good cause and I thought he might get as far as Belgium so I sent him a few quid.

“A long time later I was watching the local news in some small town in Australia and they carried a brief report about some lunatic Pom pushing a baby stroller round the world. ‘My God,’ I thought – ‘it’s him!’ ”

The account of Mark Cundy’s journey was published on Thursday, May 1.
