Great Pics Mendy, keep them coming.
Great Pics Mendy, keep them coming.
Was going to post earlier before you left but did not want to worry you. The last night Dan knew about your toe. After you posted the picture so did I. It was white underneath. Not a good sign. What a great way for your old buddy Dan to say see ya later.. He knew you were going to. Take care, lose weight, and keep up this thread mate.
Your desk is better than my desk.
No messing with the mug size tho.

They were handing out free Pfizer vaccines to farangs in Songkhla based in over 60, poor health or…
…“morbidly obese - over 100kg”
Just saying.
Once Mendip has finished his contract/work/fitness/ diet he wont qualify.
PAG, Where did you acquire this?
They just don't make things like this any more as far as I can tell. Budgets don't allow for it I suppose. Not even a free T-shirt in the last 10 years.
I was the Services Supervisor on Magnus, having moved from Forties. In fact, I was the first person actually living on Magnus, having moved onboard from the Polycastle alongside. This was 1982, and everyone got a paperweight for first oil. Margaret Thatcher was in BP's offices in Dyce to 'press the button'. This one's from Greater Plutonio, offshore Angola in 2007.
Nice collection.
One of the last North Sea rigs I was on was the Forties Delta in 2019.
I've never been to Magnus, and I wasn't even born in '82!
Scouts honor.
I was conceived though.
Bugger, bought you were about my age…
Yeah AO, Dan's a great dog, we're very close. I guess she was trying to tell me about my toe. It would have been great to bring her out here, she'd love it and would be great company!
What a horrible phrase 'morbidly obese' is for someone just carrying a few extra pounds. They love to give everything a medical term these days.
No way am I morbidly obese or even just normally obese... this has made me even more determined to sort it out.
Exactly right Joe, I'll be like a whippet when I get off this boat.
We have two ROVs on here OhOH, a workclass and a survey ROV.
The workclass is used for inspection and other general tasks and is rated to 2000m. The survey ROV is used for site/route surveys and pipeline inspection and is rated to 3000m. The depth rating of the workclass ROV will be due to the lowest rated bit of equipment bolted on and I'm sure, if necessary, that depth rating could be increased. From memory the Black Sea goes down to 2200m so something will have to be sorted out for that project.
A great collection PAG... as Dirk says even a free T-shirt is a rarity these days. I did get a vacuum mug out of Equinor last year but that went to the daughter for a Christmas present.

I really don't like the way this thread's going.
MoM... FFS...
And I had to stopover in Bangkok to get my PCR test!
Since this thread has drifted slightly off course...
I ran across a video about this sort of rock called itacolumite. Strange stuff. Do you run across this stuff during your geological surveys?
I bet she needs to clean it well after you watch a bit of pornhub!
