Hi again all!

While writing my former, this came in:

  

NEWS UPDATE @ 21:20Z - Nigel Jolly, Braveheart owner, declared an emergency
and ordered the VP8STI team to cease all operations and return to the ship.
A large ice flow that had broken away due to last night's storm starts to
block the entrance to the Bay where they were camped. There was strong
potential for the ice flow to prevent Braveheart reaching  them.

The Team is now safely aboard the Braveheart and they are moving away from
Southern Thule Is. All equipment and personal gear is still on the island.
They hope to return to camp site during next good weather window. Once they
retrieve their equipment they could make a determination as to whether they
can proceed to South Georgia to do VP8SGI as planned - VP8STI QRT !
