    Wink Greetings from the Northern Frontier (Hadrians Wall)

    Yo all just stumbled across this wonderful site, started my seagoing career in 1970 with Sugar Line as a Junior engineer staying with the company till made redundant as the fleet was sold off in 1979. Then into the oil/gas industry, North Sea/Med/Caspian till 1999 when again made redundant. From 1999 till retirement with Serco Denholm latterly Serco Marine till being made redundant and retirement aged 63 in 2012.

    Stewart, are you serious man! have you read these posts! Oh well! if you really want to stay grab your white coat from the Chief Steward and pretend your one of the carers and not one of the inmates, you have been warned. No good heading for the gangway, its already been pulled onboard.

    Stewart Welcome, you sound as though you may have found a way of survival through redundancy payments, hope they were a bit better than the Lyles one was it through the BSF, may have seen you through for a couple of weeks. The others sound as may have been private through the Companies you worked for, so hope they were a bit more substantial. Suppose you can relax now and lay back on the OAP through the NHI scheme. Do you live in the Haltwhistle area. Cheers John S

    Hi Stewart.
    Welcome to the site mate great place to spent your retirement. Don't listen to Ivan he just wants you to put a white coat on so that you can serve him drinks, every one on site is a fully
    paid up member of the loony tunes, but you will enjoy all the repartee.
    Cheers Des

    Stewart stay long enough and you wii find out the lunatics are well in charge of the asylum. But the fact remains you will never find a better bunch of lunatics anywhere. Stay, serve the drinks in your white coat and enjoy.
    Happy daze John in Oz.
