Hey guys, long time no talk I better dust this place down before posting eh its been far to long, I thought I better make a wee update post and get this going again it. So what's been happening here and what's coming up. We have all been busy with college with the usual outcome tests we have been flying through them and we only have 2 left and that's it all done and dusted and thankfully so far no resists which is nice. We are now spending our days turning up to classes getting marked in and being sent on our way, I have a feeling that is going to be what the next 2 weeks is going to be like. Easter isn't far away now, only down side is we are back in after Easter for a total of 7 days which is spread over 2 weeks, this is for plant workshop and electrical stuff I believe it is a bit frustrating but needs must as they say. So we are in Monday to Thursday then Tuesday to Thursday so a bit spread out but after that we are all done and ready to go to sea.
We have our sea briefings next week, was mean't to be today but it was moved, this is what everyone has been waiting for, to find out where we are going, what type of ship, when and who with so it's all exciting stuff it still hasn't sunk in properly in less than 2 months I will flying out to somewhere I have most likely never been, to join a ship which I never done to this scale. I think there are a few jealous people when I mention I go away soon, the old can I come in your suitcase line has been used a few times or "swap you" haha sorry to say but no chance lol.
So what else to talk about then, I have told you about college and how it's nearly done and that I get my ship soon and other people want to go to hmmm what else........ merchant navy wise that's it really when I get my ship etc I will put some info up on it I guess haha. In other news my car passed it's MOT first time which was a shock was expecting a nice bill so that's it ready to sell later next month before I go away and all that's left now is to start getting all the things I need this includes things like holdalls etc for going away with can't exactly turn up to the ship with my clothes in a black bin liner can I haha. Right that's it for now I think as really I have ran out of things to talk about slight mind blank so as soon as I think of more stuff to ramble on about I will get another post up soon I promise haha wont be as long as the last time anyway :) Cya
