I used to do a bit of offshore work now and again. First time i went off it was over the new year (2001) - flew out on Dec 28th to the Claymore, did a dozen or so trips over the next couple of years. Also been on Brae 'B', Gannet, and North Cormoront. I used to enjoy it - but i work for a different company now and haven't been offshore since 2005. Used to love those 3 meals a day though!
