  It could be depressing if it wasnt so fascinating. 

  
  

  Haven't got to Cumbria yet - Friday to Friday.  Quite frankly, I cant wait to be spoiled for a week by my sister and her lovely husband's v.v.v. impressive wine cellar!!!!

  Thanks for today's penguin lesson Doc! I can not remember how that conclusion came to me, but for certain it was not from reading the report. It was second hand information, probably from one of the guides. So I should have conducted source criticism of course, and owe your colleagues an apology.

  
  

  I normally respect the allowed distance (five ms, isn't it?) but in this case I acted as a useful fool for the two journalists from Norway's largest tabloid (of course!) paper who insisted on a profile photo for their report from Antarctica.

  
  

  I promise to stay in the doghouse for at least two hours!

  
  

  Cheers, Paul

  Further to the penguin discussion: I have been checking out my papers from the Antarctica trip, and I am quite certain that the statement came from the ornitologist on this Hurtigruten cruise. Here is the presentation Hurtigruten gave of him:

  
  

  Manuel Marin - Lecturer / Ornithology A Chilean Born Ornithologist, he received his PhD from Louisiana State University in Zoology/Ornithology. He was formerly Director of Research of the Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology in California, now currently living in central Chile. Besides being a researcher on neotropical birds, Manuel also leads bird-watching trips through Chile. Manuel publishes regularly in many ornithological journals. For the last 25 years he has been travelling extensively through many countries on ornithological research and explorations.

  
  

  So I regarded it as reasonably authorized! By the way; he was a very clever lecturer.
