Late shift 1700-0200 chasing santa for a parking ticket!

Snowy white Chicago with Family:D :D :D

On shift from 1300 24th to 1300 25th, guarding the coast.

Mother in law's house in Kansas City....
Merry Christmas to all...

I intend to spend Christmas Day bouncing grandchildren on my knee. After 37 years of flying helicopters that is no small feat, especially when I think back on all those times I did my best to prevent my longevity, and was saved by luck, smart copilots, tough aircraft and tender landing zones!

Damn! I just checked my roster I'm not on lates at all I'm on days 0800 - 1700, 23rd 24th and 25th!!...oh well have to start decorating the old cab:D

Dec 24th, Dec 25th AND Jan 1 sat to attention awaiting HEMS launch. :(

However it's not all bad news. One of our sponsors is a local curry restaurant, and we are getting a traditional slap up Christmas Curry banquet for 4 delivered on Xmas Day.

So you see, this multi-cultural Britain thing ain't all bad. Sprout Curry anybody?

Working the night shift, chasing/hunting for all the fine citizens who do not like to pay for stuff they aquire when they are not shooting at each other.

At home in God's country, surrounded by my family, bliss.

0700 report on Boxing Day of course, but that wasn't the question!

Merry Christmas :D

Chasing Santa with the breathalyser as he passes...

Christmas starts Boxing Day, Baby BMI willing!

Somewhere in south Louisiana, won't know exactly where until a couple of days prior when Scheduling calls me.

Pats bar, Victoria Island with absolutely no Dis Tings.... well for at least the first 3 hrs of 25th..

Happy Xmas:D

After a long flight, I made it...............Nice and warm, humid as Christmas should be.....
Rum is on me if your in the Virgin Islands. Stop in..

AT WORRRRRK 7 till 7 AAAARRRRRGGGGGGG
Boxing day on nights AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGG

Jingle Bells
 

Christmas Eve in the bosum of the family - No1 grandchild is on the way -, followed by Christmas Day with the outlaws (they're OK really). Then back to Brazil for a rapid change in climate. My sympathies go to Hummingfrog, having spent one Christmas offshore I don't envy you one bit, even when Aramark put on their special Christmas day lunch.

When I sip that first mouthful of round robust and fruity Rioja Reserva I will toast all the poor unfortunate sods who are out there doing the business. Chin up! maybe the roster will be in your favour next year.
