S-Westerly Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Back to planning my escape. Having been shafted last time I've been making a stink about not even trying to change some crew in Israel especially as we don't know where we are going next. So things are moving in the right direction. Unfortunately it is the week of Yom Kippur which apparently is Israel's biggest holiday. Like trying to set something up over Christmas so it may all fall apart at the last but at least we'll have tried. Getting a tad disgruntled though. My contract is 3 months and it'll be 5 months in a few days since I left home. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is it's not so much the employer in my case as other players in the industry not least the various governments of the port states who make all the right noises about how they value seamen as key workers blah blah and then treat us like absolute shite. Singapore being one of the worst. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is about to go up in the world and acquire a GS!! and may possibly be riding it to the Dolomites next year. That should be a laugh a minute. Though where he will strap the step ladder remains to be seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trooper74 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) This weekend is going to be a bit different; Julie is off to Lanzarote tomorrow ... with her friend Lesley .. for 10 days .. Without me .... !!!!!!!!!!!! I’m looking after the children ....... Which is good ..... All 4 of them ... SO .. I have a cunning plan; After school on Friday we are all off to Haxey Quays Camp Site. The girls and lad can run wild ... sort of lord of the flies .. and me and Connor can sit and chill ..ish In the tent Friday and Saturday night, on Saturday we are off to Cadwell to watch the motorbike racing and and eat junk food. Sunday we are off to the Normous Newark Autojumble. At the campsite the girls will play out well after dark with the other kids on site and a great weekend will be had by all ... Thats how it usually works ... BUT .. Julies missing this time .. I’m sure it will work out well.....

Fish Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 My weekend starts early this week. Off on Friday to complete my charity abseil for the London Air Ambulance. Its only a year later than scheduled. Saturday will be a haircut in the morning then off for an extended ride due to driving around the country all week. Sunday will be the usual clay shooting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
