I briefly worked on the old helen laser but not the new orion laser. I worked there for 10 years in a different field
I have been grounded due to my eye sight, won't let me back on the choppers or the rigs.
I have been doing this sh*** since 1983 and loved it to bits and miss it greatly, best time I had was one year in the Sahara.

Yeah very possible I was there from 2004-2014. Might end up back their towards the end of the year the place is only 9 miles away lol.
Yeah it is, They have so many areas of research, when I was leaving they had a new Hydrodynamics facility about to come online.

After Skegness I did four years of inspection work all over the world, sometimes flying three or four times a week, that does get to you though, it gets to feel like waiting at a bus stop to go to work on a rainy Monday morning.
