This evening I went to the Scott Polar Research Institute in Cambridge for the opening of an exhibition to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Trans-Antarctic Expedition. It was a really enjoyable event and a great opportunity for Peter to plug what the Foundation is doing now and for me to try to make the right impression as the only expedition member present. I hope I convinced the sceptical and unconvinced of the huge value of what we have done. I certainly found people receptive and interested. I just love meeting people at these events. I have met so many fascinating characters with their own amazing Antarctic stories to tell; as well as people who are simply a privilege to meet in any context.
We will be back here on March 1st to tell our own stories.
