Thanks for the info. Can’t fault his/her optimism!

So I think what we can take from this is that there will be recruitment, but as I said a page or two back, I’m not sure how many DEPs will get the nod. I refer back to the July holdpool update... ”At the moment based on our current forecasting for 2018 we are not expecting to be able to offer anyone a start date in 2018 from the DEP holdpool.”

And from what you say, freeze waivers from the 320 onto long haul fleets effectively closes the door for our non-rated swimming colleagues.
