My weblog while I work for the British Antarctic Survey

About this blog…

I’ll keep this page relatively short as no one’s going to come here to find my life story and the chances are, if you’re reading this blog, you probably know who I am already!

I now work for the British Antarctic Survey as a communications specialist or, more precisely, “Wintering Communications Manager”. This means that sometime in October 2008 I will travel down to Rothera station on the Antarctic Peninsular and take on the responsibility for maintaining communications between the bases, ships, field parties, aircraft and the UK office in Cambridge. It’s an 18 month post (and no, there aren’t any trips home!) so I’ll be out of the country until around April 2010.

I know it’s a little impersonal but it’s going to be difficult to stay in touch with everyone for the next couple of years so I’m going to try and use this blog as a central point where any of my friends and family who are interested can check in, see what I’m up to and maybe drop me a message…

…and if you send me any photos of all that junk food I’ll be missing out on, you’re on the block list! ;-)

(yes, that means you Dan!)
