I miss all that thumb twiddling for money. A pal in Aberdeen tells me there are 0.4 applicants for every job and that I could get ofshore again nae bother if I whacked a well-crafted CV into the right place (and maybe lied a wee bit about my age).
Youngest son is in Siberia at the moment - been there three weeks already on £190 a day, not bad for a gauge hand . . . and he gets a bigger basic than I ever did as well.

nice work if you can get it...
The twiddling (thanks nick for the spelling) is only short lived. Its full on again, rigs always have work to go to these days. In the middle of an abandonment, no crossover, waiting on, a lot of money to be made in tools and supply of.
