Dingle Days - Modern life on the Antarctic Peninsula
An illustrated talk by Dickie Hall
Community Room, 1230 for 1245
Sunday 1st July - £3/£1
Dickie joined the British Antarctic Survey in 2005 as
Wintering Terrestrial Biologist at Rothera Research Station
on Adelaide Island, Antarctica. After 32 months he headed
North to civilisation but found life unbearable without the
company of Penguins. He returned to the Antarctic for a
further 2 years, most recently in the capacity of Wintering
Base Commander. He has travelled extensively in the
support of science in Western Antarctica. In this lecture he
offers a candid, humorous and sometimes poignant look at
the unique 18-month cycle of the modern British Antarctic
Research Station.
