Yes... to you this may be 'just a banana' but to me it is very likely to be my LAST banana for EIGHT MONTHS. This makes me very sad.
We're coming to the end of the summer season at Rothera. The last two Twin Otter Aircraft left today and the larger Dash 7 leaves tomorrow. Then it's just 4 weeks until the ship (the James Clark Ross) arrives and collects the remaining summer staff leaving the 22 of us in peace for winter.
It's a strange time. Summer has been busy yet enjoyable and has brought the usual mix of cool and interesting people through the base. It is especially sad to have to say goodbye to some very good friends but exciting to be spending another winter in such an amazing place.
