After yesterdays; Why-the-British-Weather-Sucks-Today.....[^]

and being stuck offshore (been here since 24th December '09) things are looking positive!

After an initial delay of a couple of hours due to freezing temperatures, the helicopters are flying again, the 1st flight is on its way to the field. I'm on flight 3, so all going well will at last get home today.

So today is Christmas Day in my house. and the kids are desperate to open more presents.

Whats even better is my Nexus One has arrived in Aberdeen and out for delivery with the Local Courier. So may even be waiting for me when I get home! I think that is pretty good going getting it from the US Distribution centre to Aberdeen already. So WELL DONE DHL!

It is also my wife's birthday tomorrow, so neeeed to get to the shops! (everything would have been fine if i had got home as planned yesterday)

Now, lets just hope that i do get off today! there are still snow showers in the area.

Firday?

Go away and research the subject, analyze the options for and against, understand the problem and them come back when you agree with me.

The climate is crazy here too. You can witness a good number of bouts of sneezes and common cold. Be wary of commuting in public places in this part of the region now and stay low profile indoors protected.

There was a broken track the other day: took 2.5 hours to get to work in the snow instead of about 45 minutes. However, yesterday and today have been fine. Still, as a contractor, only death would prevent me from finding a way to get to work! Smile

It is one of those times when heating should always be on.

Even though it is expensive, it is cheaper than a burst pipe!

Well done, yeah I forgot the "Here", and added it after a few mins.
(Brain frozen as I said).

Still, points to you.

For those that are wondering, Antarctic is the Ancient Greek for "No Bears".

In fact the Brown Bear (AKA Grizzley) has the Scientific Binomial of Ursus Arctos, Latin 'Ursus' meaning Bear and Greek 'Arctos' meaning Bear, so it is in fact the Bear Bear.
