Oral History Recording Mike Pinnock Other information, anecdotes etc. Julian Rouse says: I was present on Base when the BC Peter "Gridley" Gibbs burnt down the balloon shed (allegedly or in Scotland not proven!); also present for the building of the wooden smartie tube base! [9 December 2001] Also from Julian Rouse: Can't remember who was last in Halley 2 but we shut it down in '81 and if I remember bulldozed the entrance just in case, I suspect it would have been the BC Pete Gibbs or one possibly Trefor Edwards (chippie) who was last in. If Halley 2 has gone, this means that Halley 3 has gone as they were very very close together. Well we always thought it was going to happen when we were there! [27 May 2005] We left [the Lansing Snowplane] in Halley two when it was sealed off in '81, how did they find it again in 85? As I seem to remember we bulldozed the entrances! [19 July 2005] This is confirmed by Pete Gibbs who says he saw it in Halley-2 garage in 1981/82.
