Wot? You actually want him back?
Yes and no, I live my travelling life vicariously through his posts so from that point of view he can stay out there, but on the other hand you know he seems to want to come back and I'm sure there is a load of wood that needs clearing from the country.
I was thinking the same. The build up of waste wood around the building sites in the vicinity of Dels houses must be by now causing some problems. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

My sons friend Works in Antarctica for the BAS. He’s been there for 2 years and is due home, but reckons he’s probably going to have to stay for another winter. Fingers crossed they can get him home, but the airstrip will be closed for winter soon.

I think he gets a lift from the Americans to the southern tip of South America, then scheduled flights.

Actually from pictures he sent us, it looks like it’s Canadian aircraft. He’s at Rothera air station as a plant engineer. Sounds an interesting place to work

Del they way things are just now I can’t afford to be choosy. I’m currently looking for work and the wife may have to close the doors due to the new regs. I will be scooping up every pallet I can find Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!
