I used to do continental shifts when I was on the tunnels Stevie.

Sleeping daytime was no problem, as normally totally knacked, I'd be out like a light as soon as me head touched the pillow and it would have taken more than a blinkin earthquake to wake me up.

Stay positive Steve
We never know whats just around the corner, grab all opportunities.

My family were all living in our place in the Phils at that time and I was away in Hong Kong so I had nowt else to do but work really.
I used to do 7 day weeks plus all the overtime I could get, as the sole purpose was to just work and save.

Being so close to the Phils meant that every few weeks I could have a weekend 'at home' though.

Couldn't do it now....too bloody old.

The plant operating would be ok though.

[stevie c]

Thanks for the encouragement terpe

I cant believe how cold it feels tonight - the heating system says its -2c outside but just popped out for the evil smoke and it feels like -10c.

But I am sure last year it was colder - when I came back from malaysia in 2010 xmas I was basking in 36c and landed at Birmingham it was -effin 15c! That was a shock having been away 6months.

I digress - I wish too I was off to the far east (or anywhere hot) soon!

I know the feeling Tone, I'm a smoker too and only smoke outside the house. I was going to go for a quick one a couple of hours ago, but I keep putting it off....well, I suppose it's one way of cutting down

I escaped the worst of the snow in the 09/10 and 10/11 winters by going over to the Phils for a few weeks. It's no fun scraping 2 foot of frozen snow off your car in an airport carpark at 3am in the morning after 24 hours of flying home
