Sean Oakes ..... LMAO . I was workin down in Eket (Aqua Ibom , Nigeria) with Bristows , and there was a video playing in my bedroom at the Princess Suites , 5 star my arse !!! I was lying on the floor when I heard his beedy little Irish voice

My mouth hit the floor when Sean Oakes was on the TV , in the video . He was acting the part of a helicopter pilot , in the hangar at QIT (Qua Ibo Terminal) an oil storage facility ..... the movie was something about a Ju-Ju and he had to rescue some bird with his chopper . I remember the line was something like this .

The bird in question asked him was he a pilot , and he told her that he had a helicopter waiting outside just for her ..... I laughed for 6 weeks .

That doesnt sound like him , rescueing women with his chopper !!!

About that Puma ..... I thought there had been only one leased too . Obviously wrong again .

Irish Heli's were busy in dem days . Bloody disgrace that they disapeared . Great company to work for , brilliant crew with a lot of laughs .

I hear Joe Durnan passed away too ?

Whats Mick Connelly doing these days , still flyin Bolkow's ?
