I’d just landed on the Brent Delta off a Chinook when we heard about the Chinook crash near Sumburgh. We all rushed to phone home. My wife was out in the car a heard news on radio, had to pull over unable to drive for a bit. I managed to phone neighbour who’d also heard news. She didn’t manage to catch my wife when she arrived home. Phoning office, person answering said they’d have to go thru list of names. Wife told them I was going offshore, not returning.

I’d not long transferred from Brent Charlie to Delta, knew majority of casualties, some very well.
Boss got me off to attend funerals.
What got to me most was the children of deceased attending, weeping uncontrollably.
After attending 7 funerals in just over a week I couldn’t take any more.

Wot. No photoshop back then.

If someone I follow posts multiple consecutive posts I have to scroll over if I’m not interested in the subject, is there a quick way of avoiding this?
