I used to enjoy doing 2 and 1 in Sumburgh. Bed and breakfast + 11 quid per day, spend 5 quid at the pub and go home with 84 quid in your pocket having used no utilities or petrol at home.
You could live it up on your week off with the extra 84 quid and you had hardly touched your salary. As a single bloke you could almost save a bit of money!
