That's how it's going out here, in the.... not so bright weather conditions.
we have only been on the ship for 8 days now, and we already had 3 days where we couldn't work due to weather conditions, and today is one of them.
But alot of things have happen since the last time I wrote a blog, everything from visitng Manchester and meet countles of good friends and.... (he will know if he reads this) Trolls, to ending up with the doctor for blood test and waiting...
So where to begin...
Manchester...
I had a ticket from the october 9th to the 11th in Manchester, and it was awesome.
The awesomeness started already in the airport in Copenahgen, before I left for UK, becuse I got the big chance of meeting my old crew from the old ship I was working on, the Esvagt Bergen.
Not that I miss the part of the bad weather out there...
But like I said, I meet them... or a few of them in the airport, for a short chat... very short, like 1 min. some of them, or the only 2 i manage to talk to where quiet in a hurry. But it was still nice to see some of the old ones from my old ship.
So the plane left for Manchester, not that I got any pictures of that, only me writing that it was just yet another trip with plane, and I am bad at taking pictures on a plane, my phone uselly always ends up in flight mode and never leaves my pocket untill we land.
But I have to admit it... Manchester airport... you are confusing.
Anyways, I got out of there and found the place where we where to meet with all of the others from an organisation called "Imperium" that I am a part of, to meet up with friends from all across the world, not all members though, otherwise we would have end up in.... well... too many.
Anyways, a whole weekend with all of those awesome people and participating in CitizenCon from Star Citizen... what an awesome weekend!
And the best thing of all, my flight got canceled the sunday during morning, so I just won a whole day extra in Manchester to spent with those awesome people I meet... How ever, the flight I took later that sunday to get home... well... I got home to DK so late, that there was no way I could get back home that day, due to ferries... so I won a hotel stay out of own pocket... the flight company did not support that... sucks.
After that, I got one awesome email from the National Homeguard school, that they want me more then anything to be instructor on their navigation courses, so in the future, if all goes well, I will be educating navigators and watch officers across the country.
And as it wasn't enough, I spent 5 days working on one of the army schools as.... many things, everything from dummy and actor, to judge for some test they had to go through, all in all... great 5 days... there is a picture I would like to show that was a part of some of the excersises, note that the picture is not real, its all makeup on the picture.
IT'S ALL MAKEUP!! NO REAL BLOOD!!
IT'S ALL MAKEUP!! NO REAL BLOOD!!
But I have no idea what I was doing right nevertheless on those 5 days, I ended up beeing the guy everyone liked... despite not knowing any of the guys or students, not to mention the feedback I got from the students... it was so good, that the school already requested me for more courses... Awesome.
So the doctors stuff.... nothing much to tell really, I had some issues with my body the last.... ehh... I think it's almost up on 5 months now, always something the blood test came out with good resoults.... meaning they have no clue at all whats wrong, but damm that doctor ruined my arm, he couldn't get enough blood the the last test glass, so he simply started to move the needle around in my arm... not that it hurt, but wauw my arm was black the next week.
No need to worrie... I dont have any pictures of that.
But otherwise then that, it's all back to normal, I'm back to work on the Esvagt Froude, and we are not doing much as long as the weather is too bad, so it will be atleast 3 days more before we even can get close to weather conditions that are good enough.
For those of you, who might have wondered why I call this "Last trip for a while" it's simply becuse in 3 weeks, when this trip ends, I will be back to school for the next 2½ year. Finishing off this year with work and 1 month off before school, with christmas and new years.
A ship in harbor is a safe ship, but ships where not made for that.
