Comments

Lunch time yesterday saw another successful haul and redeployment of the CPR – DVL Rob is now fully versed with the workings of the silver submarine and raring to go for next season (and the final haul this voyage if it turns out to be 4am again!) The series of 2pm afternoon talks has commenced again, in between the seven organised showings of movies each day in the cinema (D deck recreation room). Other than that our day continues much the same as yesterday - eat, sleep, talk, eat . . . Cheers, Nicki, Rob and Peter.
