This week’s station news is brought to you by Stay, the Australian Antarctic stations’ mascot presently residing at Casey.
Friday
Many people ask what the Casey pack do on the weekends. Well, here is a ‘guide dog’s eye view’ of what the pack get up to, but not before I got the full station news SOP (standard operating procedure) guidelines from Station Leader, Pete.
It’s been a big week for birthdays, with Rob celebrating his 5th birthday (dog years) in style with mud cake and beer. As expected, Rob’s birthday drew a crowd with the night enjoyed by all.
Friday also marked the semi finals and pointy end of the dart competition on station. While Zac was full of tough talk, he was mauled by Rob’s sharp eye and exited the competition. Shortly after, he almost landed a dart in the forehead of the photographer.
Others took a chance to unwind after a busy week, with myself and Col retreating to the smoker’s kennel to discuss world affairs.
