I see Boris Johnson is visiting Ukraine at the moment, like a kind of simulated state visit. Is this him positioning himself for another run at the PM job or does his ego need a boost (as apparently he's fairly popular over there)?

Seemed a bit strange, not sure what to make of it.

What is it ex-PM's normally after? Money. There will be loads of it sloshing around just now. Always follow the money.

Maybe he was a little early to do a Margret Thatcher style photo opportunity?.

 

It's definitely a head scratcher with us sending tanks that don't use the same main gun ammunition as the Germans Leopard that Poland has plenty of.

Money or a status boost maybe.

Anyway glad to see you're alive and well Andy, was worried for you this morning when I saw someone has disappeared off a rig!

Funnily enough it was a sister rig to the Jack-up Im on just now, both owned by Valaris. Past by here within the last 24 hours on tow to Dundee. 

 

Last report/wisper I heard is they've found him and he was on-board all along? Bit odd.

I thought he must've fallen off for some reason, wouldn't have thought it that easy to lose someone on a rig for that length of time.

They searched for him for something like 12 hours. Thats some serious Cowboy Stretch in the Sack-store if he never actually fell off. :D All very odd, I guess I'll get the latest from the rumor mill tomorrow.
