BBC NEWS | Science & Environment | Arctic diary: Explorers' ice quest: "From Martin Hartley: It was my birthday on Tuesday.
What a way to spend it - 500 miles from the North Pole, floating on a raft of sea ice that is breaking up to the north of us, a polar bear plodding around close by and running out of food.
The resupply plane is now several days late. I know they've tried three times and the weather has stopped them, so we are now down to half rations.
So no birthday cake for me and no party."
