how you guess Dave, maybe the smile on my face, lol. Bloody place is like a giant construction site now, you would hardly recognise the place, Bata still the same nice and quiet.
yip week Malabo, 5 weeks Bata shutting office packing stuff up, dismantling VSAT, 2 weeks ish on 700 putting in new GSF....sorry new Transocean servers rack and exchange etc. then a few more days of up to no good in Malabo preparing for Sedco Energy Project team.
You still in PH mate, so far I have managed to avoid that shithole. Lee has been there a fair bit in Nigeria. he was hanging in there so he could visit your old baby the DWD. Think it's headed to Ghana.
you been up to anything interesting!.

Cheers

cool Dave, hope you are having a good time off.
Yeah I aint been on msn since I got home, so don't know what hes up too. hes single so just staying out for months on end, fook that, won't get anymore thanks for it mate. Gabon, POG brings back happy memories for sure.
Yeah Ghana's going to be big mate, when I was there earlier in the year you want to see the construction on the Accra-Tema highway, agent said there has been big finds offshore, pity your old girl is off to Brazil, it's been a good money maker for EAU the DWD over the years.
Yeah I remember the floods last year Andy, my misses was down on holiday visiting her mother and sister in Abingdon/Wallingford, thank fook I was away at the time, but it was horrendous what I heard on the sky, they had to airlift the old dears from the nursing home in Abingdon, lol.
Today it only rained a little here, that was of course as soon as I wheeled the bike out of the garage.
then rain of biblical proportions decended and I prompted reversed it back into the garage,lol.
oh well always tomorrow.
