Fabulous pics, John, (or should you be addressed as Doctor John?), it is very interesting to see how other xmarkers spent New Year's Day.

What is it you do on the platform (job title/description?) It seems as though our jobs have some direct connection. I also work in the Oil and Gas industry, though landbased and well services. I work as a district level well services (cement, fracturing, acidizing) Laboratory Manager.

Happy I'm not there anymore, but it does look familiar. We had warmer water though.

I'm the platform Medic and the Health, Safety and Environmental Advisor. It's a gas platform.

Proof that a kilt doesn't make the man!

He really does work hard with lots of duties and tons of work-related emails.

However, the reason he looks so smug here is that he has just pitched the darts, doms and the bloody Wii overboard.
