What to take?

A week to go and I need to start packing my personal things. The flight from Novo to Halley is very weight constrained so I can only take 20kg of my own baggage. All my cold weather gear will already be there so its just my indoor gear and any toys that I want. I am taking a kindle this year - so much lighter than dozens of books. My MP3 player obviously, my computer (so I have all my digital photos of the family and all my music collection). But what else to take? How many T shirts to last three months? What would you take?

    Good point Matthew - I will take at least one camera, perhaps two.

    It would be great to go diving in the Antarctic - but that's reserved for professional divers. I did once snorkel at Rothera and despite the wetsuit it was cold.
