Now just before anyone gets to thinking we are making some of this stuff up....

Port Harcourt, Colditz Estate, the one immediately adjacent to the luxury CP and TRE estate. Ah, but if we could play the video made by our Teutonic Photographer and very senior Bristow Captain.

Rather than install bars over the outside of the windows to prevent entry....the Bristow solution...."Weld the metal window frames shut". Now as anyone knows...NEPA...the Nigeria electrical grid is less than perfect. Thus when (about half the time or more) the electricity goes off....the overhead fans stop...the air con goes off....and gee....one cannot even open the fecking windows!

That folks is the Bristow mindset.....in a nut shell.

One could not make this up if one tried!
