Swapping shifts mid shift sound awful mate! I've done it a few times before. Nastier going from nights to days, but never fun regardless. Just the trip that keeps on giving this trip! All be a bad memory in a week, hopefully. Except the helicopter pilots have gone on strike and our storage vessel c...

Swapping onto night shifts for my last week. Was supposed to be on nights this trip but ended up covering days due to staffing issues. Got about 4 hours sleep after my day shift and now been up since 2am. Try to get down again about 10am and start shift at 6pm! The win was no one is on the wifi at 2...

Happy birthday dude

Thanks for all the well wishes guys.

1/2 way through the swing today, and hopefully the last birthday I’ll have offshore, so I’m holding on to that!

Is it today here but yesterday there? Anyway, hopefully you had a quiet shift. Nah you got me at the latter part of the day itself. And it has been reasonably quiet for me today, even got to watch the motoGP at lunchtime, so win win. And as it's friday, fish and chips for dinner. I've had worse bir...

finally got to see the Malaysian MotoGP

I love the way your posts read like a script for a good platform horror movie, yet you post a picture of a calm and beautiful ocean view.. Glad it's all settled down though mate, that does sound horrific. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk Ha ha it felt like a horror movie tbh!!! Had some more...

None of that sounds like fun. no, it wasn't at all :D Though it was satisfying getting through some technical issues and re-establishing normal power, and then also being the person that brought on the main HVAC again (Utilities Tech was busy bunkering diesel to keep the place running) I lost just ...

Bloke I travelled to work with from Sydney just went down with COVID. I have to RAT test every day for the next week. Was a chick in front of him on one of the flights coughing her lungs up, I was 4 rows away, so fingers crossed.

Who is Erin Carter

7 eps, quite enjoyed it

Heading to work. Had to go via Melbourne and second leg had been delayed multiple times. Now won’t get into Darwin till 11.20pm and I have to check in for my Timor flight at 4.30am tomorrow morning. Great lead up to a night shift swing 😕 Landed at midnight, finally into bed at 1am. Up at 4am and no...

I have to say that every child bar one only took one item and they all said thank you. Have to say, even though I have certain expectations of politeness all the kids conducted themselves in an impeccable manner. Even when a group of 15-16 boys rocked up I thought “here we go” but they were just as...

Get it, the years your body could tolerate a 600 sports bike are dwindling, enjoy it while you can!!

Answering the door to trick or treaters. I'm not a fan, but Mrs K has decorated the front of the house and put a pumpkin in the front window. And she's gone out and left me to it. There's hundreds of kids. I reckon there's parents bringing their kids in from other areas. The entrance to our estate ...
