Can't get a dickybird out of the link.
When I left the Bootnecks I at first worked in the UK but soon got bored with the whole situation so took on a job working in Namibia at the "CONOCO/BP" Oil depot which was the main access for oil to South Africa. Pay was good, plus I got to hit East London every six weeks over the border in South Africa.
Met some brammer blokes whilst in the bars having a wet and sometimes a meal. Most were disgruntled ex Rhodesian armed forces blokes brassed off with the way their country was going to the dogs (This was 17 years ago). Some of the tales they told.............Had a great time with the buggers!!!
Most of the blokes who were my age now work in Nigeria guarding the Oil Wells and keep themselves locked up in their compounds when off duty. I kid you not people, give it time and the situation in that country will produce a a bloodbath which will make Afganistan and Iraq seem like pinpricks due to the hassle over religion and Tribal unrest. Just my two pennies worth anyway.
