Victory Day

It is Victory Day today in Russia, celebrating the WW2 victory over the Germans.
There have been a host of war films on TV over the last few days and a lot of German jokes...the Deutag caravan is a bit of a target ;-)
Here is a picture of the poster on our door:




"Fascists can't escape us-we will hunt them down to their (bear) dens"
















Apart from that, I have been teaching our charming but rather impractical TA Vlada how to re-pot a plant...(please don't ever mention gravel to me again)
















and today saw a bunch of people leaving on crew change, including my good friend Pasha-the-DSV... :-(( and his side-kick Sergey the Hoist Supervisor. The Rig 4 Magic Team legend will live on...:-) I know I was lucky to work with Pasha as he was so easy to communicate and get along with, which really helped when I started out on my own and when I was really really tired sometimes. Another big part of my life here...
