 Today | As a young man I worked with the British Antarctic Survey where I was involved in the construction of a new base on floating ice but soon moved on to major reconnaissance expeditions. On return to England I spent over three decades working with young people in outdoor education and was warden of an outdoor pursuit centre for 23 years. Though now technically retired I am fully occupied with my hobbies of carpentry, writing, mapping local interest areas, and lecturing as well as walking, cycling and (when possible) skiing. |  Forty years ago |
