Despite the veneer of normality, the Fid is a somewhat rough diamond. The bloke in the middle reminds me of someone I was on base with who would sometimes get his willy out in distant or group shots. You often wouldn't notice at the time, but someone would point it out at the slide show. I'm not going to name him, but you know who you are if you're reading this!

This picture is one of a collection assembled in 2007 on the 60th anniversary of Signy Island Base: 60°43'S 045°36'W. Thank you to those who sent their treasured memories of their time in Antarctica and allowed them to be made into a commemorative cd and then placed here on the web.

My commentary is taken from notes I was sent with the pictures if any. Corrections or additions, please

The reunion weekend was 14-16 September 2007.
