Drexyl Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Spotted sitting in the airport carpark last monday (11th), looking very lonely without it's owner! Couldn't see the plate, so don't know what year, I was rushing past in a taxi to go and meet my ship! Quote
Stew Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Another ABZ visitor! You quite often see a sunset one at the control tower. You meeting your ship at the Harbour in aberdeen or you go to peterhead? Quote
Drexyl Posted February 20, 2008 Author Posted February 20, 2008 It was the Bibby Sapphire. Joined at Albert Quay in aberdeen. It was meant to be a month's trip, but the weather has come up too much to dive, so we got "off-hired" and dropped off in Peterhead yesterday. Home again now Quote
martinmac Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Peterheeeed! Not a very nice place. The only harbour I know where you have to go to sea because its too rough Horrible place. Aberdeen though what partial memories Quote
Stew Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 I still claim that Aberdeen must have one of the highest 'pubs per person' rate in the UK! Quote
martinmac Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 19th hole, Torry bar and Metro pretty well took up my time, we did have to go to sea for 30 hours each week Fantastic charter. Quote
Drexyl Posted February 20, 2008 Author Posted February 20, 2008 Sadly, I haven't spent as much time in Aberdeen drinking as I'd like. Seems as soon as I get off my flight, I'm almost always rushed away to either a waiting vessel or chopper! then it's RUSH, RUSH, RUSH, standby.... Quote
Stew Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 The metro! Class Martin. I bet you 'had relations' with many Torry slappers twice your age then! I'm just glad I'm not scrambling to the heliport now with 3 hours notice and then sitting for a week offshore as something is stuck! Quote
martinmac Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Considered it a service to the community mate. Amazing 2 years Quote
