Bob Wells: We had [the film] "Cattle Carters" frequently and the sport was to spot the continuity
errors - in each view of the lorry train it had a different number of wheels !. [10 January 2004]
'Snoopy' Pinder: Auroras, huskies, hinge zone, skiing behind the aero beastie,
midwinter, midsummer, the beer machine, the visits of the Argentinians and the
Americans; could understand the former but not the latter. Copious supply of Schlitz beer,
aptly named, lobster tails, steaks, and fresh eggs! many of which changed hands for
bottles of malt whisky. Skiing behind the Beastie, talking to King Hussein on amateur radio,
blowing up the helium filled met balloons in the gash shaft. The maiden voyage of the Bransfield
with Sir Vivian Fuchs on board, and many many more deeply implanted memories. [25 July 2006]
