A drill rig in the North Sea

18 and you?
ever been to the IOM btw?
I am 23, never been to the IOM. Do you ever come to the mainland?
yeah until last year I used to visit family in M'cr and Bamber Bridge about 5 times a year - I'm at uni now so I spend half my time in England
Nothing wrong with maths. What music do you like?
anything and everything really; jazz, 70's classics, rock, spanish style, soul, easy listening...........
not a huge fan of classical though I'm not saying I don't like any of it
how about you?
70's funk, Mr Bungle, classical - canon. What is your favorite film?
man that's a tough one, to be honest I haven't seen that many films, though I'd be very tempted to say Shrek - yeah I know, I'm a big kid!
Mine's 'Fear and loathing in Las Vegas' - next - favorite book?
Engram by Keith Baker - it's a thriller about a girl in a car crash who loses her memory and is struggling to regain it and figure out what happened
also Enid Blyton's The Magic Faraway Tree - loved it as a kid and it still hasn't lost that special charm
I think my favorite is 'Hell's Angels' by Hunt0r S Thompson. Describe yourself.
last question cause I really need some shut-eye!
5"6, blonde, avg build, fairly quiet until you get to know me, worryingly addicted to NS, intelligent but no common sense, fairly laid back
how about yourself?
Nearley exaxctly the same except my hair is brown (going grey) and veeery laid back. Must speak next week (next time I am online). my bed summons me.
See you later chuck! :wink:
yeah so is mine, bye for now!
Nice game last night. Your new friend been on?
thought you weren't going to be back till next week GJ?
HAPPY EASTER everyone!
Hey there! They let you off that drill rig for Easter? :D :lol:
no no, still stuck there, gazing out to sea
well actually the last part's true, can see a big ship on the horizon and a little RIB is just entering the bay
Is the sea calm? What is a RIB?
yeah the sea's dead flat for once
a RIB is a Rigid Inflatable Boat, the kind the Lifeboat use
Nice view.. I see trees mostly, sometimes a deer.
cool, how old are you btw?
I am a high pressure welder / pipe fitter
enjoy it? I'm an undergrad, planning to train as a teacher when I finish my degree
I like it fine, Its a job. A math teacher?
Does anyone know the best way to build a fake Siamese fighting fish?Me and my future brother-in-law are going to try something.
Ur6 - yep, teaching 11-18 year olds
Gary Jules - no, I'm afraid that isn't one of my particular talents!
You must be a saint to want to teach them at that age...
A fake fish? Why? How real looking..?
lol, I think it's the challenge that I'm most looking forward to, I know there are going to be far more real wasters than decent kids, but I've done a bit of tutoring and just seeing the look on someone's face when something finally clicks - it's awesome
I've done some teaching as well, but mostly adults or close to it, and you are right. It has its rewards.
A fake fish? Why? How real looking..?
Real enough looking to fool a real one.
excellent, what were you teaching?
welding, statics, strength of materials
I can't see a dolled up goldfish doing it, besides it will be killed,
try a mirror?
A mirror had an effect - the fake fish is the next stage. Got a fish keyring and a blue rosette. We're cookin' wi gas now.

I teach adults too, Six. They know why they're in school, and are glad the instructor wants to help them master their skills. There's little game-playing on either side, "what's he after?" "what are they up to?"...
I respect my students very much because their choice is a demanding one; most have jobs, families...and now, 30 to 40 extra hours of mindwork each week.
Good stuff Coll. I'm sure the students respect you as well :D
