    Roughly 61° North 01° E between Shetland and Norway. I will take a photo and show what it looks like at the moment.

    This is just tits, way better than I expected, we got a guy sailing around the North Sea ( I think) that paints figures giving us an update and pics. And Martin gets to play with MP5's (which is awesome). Ron Lays blocks. The Canadians teach and account. Janne is a Swede. Del....who knows? , .....I do not believe him, ever. I expected at least one Secret Agent and got it,....the Cunning Linguist was also no surprise. (Except from a Mod, I expect better).

    Spent 14 years working for a Technology College as a Network System Administrator. While doing this I studied for my Open University Degree and graduated in Science and Astronomy. In between this and up to the beginning of this year I spent 17 years as a freelance SIA Security operative/ close protection. I decided to quit this year and spend most of my days resin casting and commission painting for collectors from around the world as well as sorting stuff out here on PF. That's about as exciting as it gets! Been painting figures since the age of about 8 and never lost the passion for it.

    Cheers

    That particular activity is now banned due to some idiot having to be medevaced with a hook stuck in their hand. (Not on this ship I might add.)

    Started my young working time as a electrician at 16. Only 3 months and went to the hospital to start working as a student nursing in 1972. finished this with a diploma in 1977 and went to the military service for my number.
    Glad that was over, started at the Operation Room in 1978 and got my degree in it in 1981. Started as junior Plaster Master (making casting around broken bones after I fixed them in a good direction. For this last I started study in 1989 and got my degree in 1991. Since then I do nothing else then fixing bones in Plaster, and must been doing that till I'm 67. Only 7 years to go. :(

    Worked on the Railway for 28 years,I don't enjoy it as much as I used to but it's still a job,shift work and unsociable hours to contend with as well.
    55 now so I shall see my working days out on the railway,too old to start anything else.

    Only monkey's but still not worth the risk, innocently eating fruit might be enough to warrant a lynching.

    Awesome jobs here! At age 17 found myself turned down for pilot training and woke up in paracommando boot camp. Slogged on, got some "pips" on the way, saw quite some nice and forlorn countries, always in the wrong season of course, learned that even the UK has mountains and a lot of open space:oops: . After the Cold War the nasty real world revealed itself to us and I was politely, but with some insistence, asked to stay on beyond age 55 and ended my 43 years of service as an intelligence officer, which is of course the greatest misnomer known to man! Nothing spectacular, but fun at times nevertheless!;)
