Sailor returns home after round-the-world quest

A Leicester man has returned home after sailing around the world to mark his 60th birthday.

Bob Brown said he felt "euphoric" but also "sad" when he reached the finish line of the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race in Portsmouth on Saturday after 11 months at sea.

Brown, who's now 61, said there was a lot of "emotional tears" shared with his family and crew after his boat travelled 45,039 miles.
