Disko

/ ˈdɪskəʊ /

noun

an island in Davis Strait, off the W coast of Greenland: extensive coal deposits

During the wait at Disko, another form of Arctic travelling was practised by the officers of the expedition.

Disko was smoking in all his shore dignity and a pair of beautiful carpet-slippers.

Disko in the cabin growled up the hatchway, and they could hear him suck his pencil.

There was a burst of spray as the hatch opened, and Disko, in yellow oilskins, descended.

Disko Troop stared forward, the pipe between his teeth, with eyes that saw nothing.
