Despite his advancing years and a number of health scares he suffered heart problems while making an earlier attempt to climb Everest and amputated five of his fingers using an electric drill from his garden shed after losing them to frostbite Fiennes is sanguine about his chances of success.I don't think about not coming back, because I mean, more people get killed on the roads here than they do in Antarctica. I mean, I had a massive heart attack reading a magazine on an airplane. You don't need to go to Antarctica to pop it.Compared to the early polar explorers of the 1900s, Fiennes's team will benefit from some innovative equipment, including boots with electrically-heated insoles,battery powered heated clothing, radar to spot dangerous crevasse fields and a specially designed breathing apparatus to enable them to survive at temperatures that will regularly reach 70 degrees Celsius and perhaps even lower.Their list of supplies is also exhaustive, with support sledges carrying 7,300 tea bags, 4,400 packets of soup, 230 kilograms of chocolate and 165 rolls of toilet paper. If they are left stranded the supplies are enough to keep them alive for 365 days, a realistic prospect given significant uncertainty about whether the support vehicles carrying their supplies can continue operating at temperatures of -70 degrees Celsius.As one of the last great wildernesses on Earth, Antarctica, especially in winter, might as well be the moon, in terms of its isolation.The continent has been protected from territorial disputes and exploitation by The Antarctic Treaty since the 1960s. |

if we did not make the last two payments...which, by the way, were looong overdue, so we started looking for a new apartment. One morning, while we were reading the classified ads, we ran into a very appealing offer. Needless to say, we were ecstatic, joyful, exhilarating! The ad claimed it had enough space for two tenants to live comfortably. What disillusion we crashed into! When we got to the premises, the cat was let out of the bag:(. It was a tiny sardine box that barely held the two of us upright. As you may well suppose, this was enough to set the cat among the pigeons! |
