Here we detail those who have supported the expedition & how. We also receive monetary support from a number of grant-giving bodies <p><h3>Our 1996 sponsors were:</h3><BR> Food:<BR> <dl compact> <dt>Morning Foods<dd>Mornflake oats: tradition holds that you will have an epic if the porridge doesn't thicken, so a foolproof product is essential. The empty tins have a multitude of uses, and the full ones are good to sit on ! <dt>Schwarz<dd>Spices: Student cuisine is apt to be monotonous unless livened up a little, so a selection of spices helps keep us all sane. <dt>Sharwoods<dd>Noodles: After a hard trip, cavers want food quickly without using too much gas. Noodles are the fastest form of hot carbohydrate, and far superior to soggy rice. <dt>Shepherdboy<dd>Sunflower bars: A good mix of simple and complex carbohydrate to keep energy levels high 'on the hoof' <dt>Smithkline Beecham Nutritional Healthcare<dd>Horlicks drink: Tasty, nutritious instant drinks <dt>Thorntons plc.<dd>Fudge: Yummy, very high energy cave food for a faster boost to flagging cavers <dt>Thomas Tunnock Ltd.<dd> <a href="http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~www_sa/socs/tunnock/">Tunnock's Caramel Wafers</a>: Very popular, light, high-energy camp & cave food <dt>Walkers' Nonsuch Ltd.<dd>Toffee: Robust. very high energy cave food <dt>Wander Ltd.<dd>Ovaltine Options drink: Excellent instant drink </dl> Equipment:<br> <dl compact> <dt><a href="http://www.terra-nova.co.uk/">Terra Nova Equipment</a>.<dd>Tents: With both Base and Top Camps, an excessive supply of cloth houses is essential. The discount provided on these was very useful. <b>Warning</b>: their website is framed and unusable on many browsers. </dl> <hr /> <!-- LINKS --> <ul id="links"> <li>1996 Expedition info: <ul> <li><a href="index.htm">Index</a> (more detail than in this list)</li> <li><a href="log.htm">Logbook</a></li> <li><a href="excsrp.htm">Preliminary report</a> (exCS newsletter)</li> <li><a href="report.htm">Cambridge Underground report</a></li> <li><a href="bcracc.htm">BCRA Caves and Caving</a> Report</li> <li>Wookey's Compass Points <a href="gps.htm">article on GPS usage</a></li> </ul></li> <li><a href="../../sponsr.htm">Current year's</a> sponsors</li> <li><a href="../../pubs.htm#pubs1996">Published accounts</a></li> <li><a href="../../index.htm">Back to Expedition intro page</a></li> <li><A href="../../../index.htm">CUCC Home page</a></li> </ul> </body> </html>
