After 12 days of steady ops followed by 2 days of hell, it is time to await the arrival of the paraffin budgie. Should be here in 2.5hrs.
Handover written, desk is cleared, ppe is stored away.....just scoffed bacon sanny, toast and tea. Just need to get rid of this stinking headache. I would be gulping down cold water if I wasn't due to be flying, but don't want to pee myself on the flight! The cabin was far too warm last night and think I have cooked my skull and the brain is dehydrated.
Should get back to the house and have a few hours peace before 'they' get back. At least the youngest wont be running around like a nutter, she apparently badly sprained her ankle the other day after sprinkling herself with fairy dust and jumping off a bed trying to fly....wonder if that has anything to do with Peter Pan being on the telly the other day.
Quiet night and tomorrow is gearing up for a houseful on the 2nd

Capital budgets have been reduced, projects have been slowed or shelved. Rigs are starting to stack. Paycuts are kicking in across the industry and offshore rota's are being reviewed.

Sue the people who sold you the fairy dust - it's clearly false merchandising!

Try fresh air, instead of fresh water - it may help and no pee problem...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

That means going outside and can't do that. I am in my going home gear and my PPE has all been put away for the trip. I'm sure once I get on the chopper it will clear, the fresh air and snooze on the way in will do wonders.

Correct. Stay within the accommodation module until the flight arrives.
See this pic[^], the big white module on the left under the helideck is the accom. block.

Can be frustrating to be closed over 2 hours with headache...
Try an ice-pack on the top of your head, or try to lick a lemon slice...Both known to help...

I have to try it with may boy before he gets too old (with the girls I'm late already). I'm going to check my calendar when I'm alone with him (my wife probably will not allow)...

Must say that is one of the oddest statements I have seen in a forum.

It's not that odd, I've seen a lot odder...
It is just an common name for the the 'rig taxi service' i.e. one of these [^] or whatever model the service provider uses.
