Sorry for my lack of posts recently guys and gals!
Im just back from a week of sailing, 5 nations in 5 days biggrin
Start off in Scotland (Glasgow) then to Wicklow (Republic of Ireland) to Holyhead (Wales) to Peel (Isle of Man) then to Bangor (Northern Ireland) and back to Glasgow. 480 miles with gale force 8 most of the time 
Even though I moaned a couple of times I did really enjoy it, might even do it again when its summer   
The guys taking us were some of the soundest guys Ive met.
Got invited to go back to do some work with them during my holidays if I wanted to by the skipper (Dave the legend).
The entire crew got our competent crew certificates and I seem to have been put forward for some sort of other prize but not sure what thats about yet, if its a weeks free sailing trip voucher I will be given it away lol.
Don't really care about the certificates that much just loved getting to stear the ship in really rough biggrin
There was some kind of evalution thing with comments from the skipper thats being sent to my sponsor company he made me sound like the sun shines out my arse so hopefully my company will looking favourably on me biggrin

fire fighting course and survival training.

Now that is fun time  yay

Nothing like donning a DCBA (Damage Control Breathing Apparatus) and going into a confined metal box with a large oil fire.  It keeps the mind sharp and the reflexes active and you get to sound like Darth Vader.  I used to love the fire fighting courses as they always got the adrenalin going.

Good luck mate and enjoy the training.
