Been back over two hours ago and the wimmen are still kicking up a storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohhh_yeah 2765 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Yep. All fun is supposed to be banned for the week. Seems like every detail has been put forth. "Prayer" is listed several times and they can get to fuck! Not lying, this year I was handed a "schedule". My mum has seven sisters and two brothers. Tomorrow, we are going to sneak off aka get hollered at because we are trekking to the sea lion caves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 26804 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Once had a gaffer in charge of the companies money taking us on a night out many years ago and he printed off his 'schedule' of where we going and how long we'd be in each place. He'd got the job from 'the offices' and wasn't from 'the shop floor'. Needless to say he had some arms round his shoulders explaining the error of his ways whilst he was buying the rounds in different bars at different times later on that night.

Monkeys Fist 38749 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 A mix of mild excitement and average trepidation. I’ve left the business I’ve been at for 10yrs, today was the first day of my offshore survival training, all things being well I should be twiddling my thumbs on a rig off the coast of Holland in a few weeks time.

Monkeys Fist 38749 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Aye, mainly setting up and supervising some other fucker hanging off a rope- suits me I’ve succumbed to the filthy offshore lucre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life begins (again) at 50 Nice one mate are you doing it down in Boro? I am not a good good swimmer and when I did the bit when they drop the helicopter into the pool and flip it over, I got out of my seat and out of the window before the cunt had hit the water. There was one fella who couldn’t work his seat belt, so just held his breath until they pulled the helicopter back up, stupid smoggy cunt (aye, I’m from Boro). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 38749 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Best of luck mate! Finding work and contracts isn’t too hard when you’re self employed, getting the fuckers to actually pay you for said work is the tricky bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fellas who have been offshore since year dot and slammed on about 10 clem, just doing a refresher course. Them squeezing through the helicopter windows is prettt funny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 When I’m bored I like looking at Flight Radar and see where the big jet overhead is off too, (I know, add it to the sad list), it always amazes me the number of helicopters constantly back and forth to the rigs. Usually about 150mph at 2000ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
