Careful out there pad, it looked pretty lumpy off Aber yesterday.
Your right of course , only the other day my foot was in a loop of a keep net weighting more than I do, which was over the side plunging into the deep, however I managed to free my foot by throwing myself across the deck.
Not bad for a 56 yr old.

I'm back from my travels to Southampton. Whilst on them, I saw a LaFerrari on the M40 - the mad green one owned by Jamiroquai front man Jay Kay no less. This one:



And then later on, on the A34 I saw Jason Plato in his Cayenne.

Tomorrow - Swansea!

I did something similar when I was a nipper. Shooting a string of 60 pots, all whizzing off the pile in a laid out order, some twit got a couple crossed. 3 of the strops wrapped around my welly and started to pull me towards the shooting slot.

Lucky I as in borrowed wellies that were a few sizes too big. The welly got wrenched off and was never seen again. It took a while to unpeel the fingers off the rail.

Thanks, ali. I'm old enough to know better than be taken by surprise smile I'll have a week or so off and then start looking in earnest. This is so much better than being laid off just before Christmas, I can't tell you.

Latest: Ernest says he doesn't want me looking in him.
yes not a bad time of year for it at all smile

Say hi to him from me wink

Dicky- sorry to read of your job issues. The economy is on the way up, opportunity will knock.

Lizzie and I are looking to head to the smoke, so perhaps we can share a bottle of something in the foreseeable future.

In a brief ceremony at work yesterday I was awarded the DCM. That'll learn me. As the last Cad Man Standing I'd convinced myself I'd made the cut for the office move to Wimbledon.

Drat.

Still, if there's no work, there's no work. The jacket sailed away last week and the topsides isn't far behind. They're not even bidding very much at present.

So, this time next week, in the Lounge Bar of the Newbury Labour Exchange, I shall be heard keenly persuing employment opportunities, "Is there any fear of work, mate?"
Do you hear any rumours about the Falklands oil? The last PR blitz said they want a semi-sub platform instead of an FPSO, so presumably there will be a tender going out for that in the next 12 months for them to meet the desired production date of early 2018.

New volume! party

Torque person, don't forget to drive down the Gower!
