Not so much a tradition as an idea that seems to come up independently with almost every generation of Fids. "Pub" crawls were a way to pass a Friday evening with bars set up at various places around the base. One of these was usually some kind of ice bar it seems from the number of photographs I've seen of them. Sometimes it was just a bar, sometimes the bar was inside an igloo.

| 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. The reunion
weekend was 14-16 September 2007. |
