Claymore was on the telly.

[BlueSkyNick]

Just been watching BBC 10 o'clock news. Stephen Sackur did a report from a drilling platform in the North Sea, because our industry is at risk of a takeover by the tossers in Brussels.

The platform's name was Claymore.

So here we all are thinking its a classy boat with patio doors, and it turns out to be a stinkie pile of metal run by men in dirty overalls and wellies !

Re: Claymore

Aren't they the things which let off lots of hot air which is of no use to anyone? Also slightly ageing and decaying with a bit of rust around their nether regions. As well as having their feet permanently in very large puddles if water.

It seems that those unfortunate enough to come into contact with them can't wait to get away!

Re: Claymore

Yes the poor things have just heard on the grapevine that some silly sod is about to empty their newly discovered holding tank in their bit of ocean.

From memory the 1 internet café there closes for the winter.

Got a text from him on Thurs. He should have arrived back offshore on Friday. No doubt he'll catch up soon as he was off for 6 weeks.
