Billy is still about mate & as lazy as ever lol, flew back with him on Tues, do you know George the crane op ?. The E92 has been in Irish Sea for about 18 months now, we've got abandonment to do next then couple more wells then back to North Sea. I'll send your regards next trip

That'll be george mate. The girls are very fit & very misserable apart from one ( the cementer is shaggin her ) Most of the E92 crew are from Great yarmout/lowestoft area. I felt quite left out as i'm from Norwich, only one other from norwich on there. Who you working for & where abouts ?

Hi. i've done my Bosiet and mist training and passed my medical, cannot get a sniff of a job offshore as a roustabout. i've 10 years towercrane experience and 12 years experience slinging/banking. if i do the banksman and rigger courses with sparrows do they put me on their books and find work or do they just give you the cert and let you on your way? i'm finding it's who you know and not what you knw seems to be the system to get work offshore.
