		<description><![CDATA[At night we lay in our cabins with the porthole open watching the floes glide by and the ship shuddered as it met resistance. After drifting off to sleep we would wake in the small hours and look out over a vast tumultuous sheet of ice. Unfortunately it wasn't long before we came across open ocean, surprised at what good time we had made.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=2209&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I jumped on my skidoo and raced back to my bunk room where I threw everything in a bag and went to the pick up point where I was assigned a snow cat for the 40min journey to the coast.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=2018&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[have just heard that the twin otter has flown out to find a route through the ice for the Igaka and that they have transmitted waypoint coordinates for a course through the ice. They could be with us tomorrow with any luck. The Shackleton is currently trying to dodge the largest Iceberg in nearly ten years - it is approx 4km sq and drifting in there direction.....<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=1878&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We hear that the Igarka has now left Cape Town and that there was some concern over the lashing of the cargo with a separate stevedore team having to be employed to check the loads for insurance purposes. The cargo is predominantly GRP cladding panels which, while not heavy, are very large and potentially fragile if stressed in the wrong direction.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=1732&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The penguins are noisy and smelly and fear us little. The young ones still have there down feathers and will not leave the ice until they have moulted. They vary in size from 300mm to 600mm and some seem to have been left to perish. Abandoned, it seems, they stand feebly on their own.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=1700&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
