My dad worked for the Falklands Islands Dependency Survey between 1958 and 1961, setting up the ionsopheric station at Halley Bay. He then returned to work for the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Antarctic Division (New Zealand) between 1962 and 1965, as scientific leader at Scott Base. He had seemingly endless fascinating stories and fantastic photos from his time there. My sister has created a blog with some of these at https://elw0168.wordpress.com .

Thanks for that, I'll add a link to the blog from the Halley page, always fascinating to see stuff from the earlier days of the scientific era.
