Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone and thier families. Stay save on the road.
No chrissy cheer or new year shenanigans for me this year.
I am currently onboard a drillship (oil rig ) sailing to location in the South China Sea. We are currently heading striaght into monsoon weather and our current speed has dropped from 10 knots to 2 knots. My 2 year old can run faster !
I will not be making it home for the festive season as a week trip has turned into 16 days.
WILL SANTA BE ABLE TO FIND ME !!!!

seasons greetings,

Lionel, sorry to hear that you won't be home for Xmas. Please try to have a special time, wherever you are.
Do try and remember that Xmas was never intended to be all about presents. It's about thinking outside of oneself...and I'm sure that plenty of others will be sparing you a thought :)))))))))

Ev, Not home for chrissie and no beers! Bugga, never mind we will have your share. Things are starting to get busy down south with all the "normal" working people having holidays. Unfortunately it is head down and bum up for us for the next five weeks, after that I'm sure to find somewhere nice and quiet for a few days of r and r.
Merry xmas to you, Ren and Lee
Cheers Craig and Dale
