Ok......in "The Channel" now ...still Norway-bound.

Snow, big waves and generally pap weather.

Hard at work, watching videos, as the weather has been deemed too bad for us to be out on deck!!!!

I've even been in the gym.......SHOCK - HORROR!!!!!

Martin............fancy thinking that this isn't proper work!!!!! LOL

I'll give you all a wave as we pass level with TTS land.......get your binoculars out and watch for a big blue ship with a big round grey "wheel" thingie in the centre of it and a "slopey thing" on the back of it!!! (technical terms I know, but I'm sure you'll understand!!!)

Updates tomorrow!!!

Marty

Does that mean you are on a Aircraft carrier and if it is is there any chance we can do some quarter mile times on deck. Would be a cracking first for the TTS

Sub ............... You were running 16, you should have the answers mate!!!

Paul

Cool Did I do well Paul As I never managed to get still got the Delivery guy delivering all these lovely go faster bits for the car. Just shows how well my car does I can have it parked on stands with a few really need bits sent away for modification and still get it on the rolling road LOL

It is true, SubtypeR should have been on the rollers this afternoon. There were a lot of people didn't turn out for one reason or another.

I do recall a shout going out for the 'tarty scoob with tacky dragons on the side' ;) could only have been referring to one person!!!!!!!!

There were some unexpected results today, both high and low. Very interesting really.

Martin

We haven't got room for a single Scoob on our deck at the moment....sorry. I could sell some in Norway for mucho wonga. I think they are about seventy grand new out there!!!!

Got to try and get my Shootout entry in.........any ideas how I can get a cheque to them from out here? Boo Hoo!!!!!

Will be along the North east coast in the morning....will wave if it's not too early.

Marty

So what the hell does that thing do....?

Marty,

So when do you actually start working.

If it takes over a week to get there and a week to get home, do you just turn around when you get there and come straight home? ;)

Martin

morning all.......................

"She" is a pipelay vessel.

See Here for a few details.http://www.subsea7.com/cms/album/full_326.jpgThat's the pipe in mid air between the ramp and the reel.

Oh by the way.......*waving facing a bit south west*.......we made good progress overnight and we are now level with somewhere like Dundee.

It doesn't usually take so long to get to work Martin!! Anyway....I'm at work as soon as I leave home (for pay purposes). I normally join in port, during a job, but this time the vessel was in transit between Africa and Norway.

The weather is pap and I miss load of Scooby meetings....boo hoo!!!

Marty
