Yet we survived and the sight of one of the most gaily coloured ToolPusher attire  You ever did see Joined those Ranks of Hairy arsed Oilmen Enter the fray Mr Podgy One leg Pink other Black with a Jacket to Match

Podgy was a Fashion Icon around the Bars in Las Palmas

extreme  colour coordination was hit with the Ladies and a temper to Match at Cock fight Gamblers Cluedo games 

Rig Life was Twenty questions a Minute and Hold or Pull this and he was a real Rooster Go Getting Gung Ho

as soon as he Mastered his Training He left the Company to join the Rival Drilling Worlds as a New DP drillship

Offering Rapid advancements to Young Bucks Podgy Jumped and Peace came! More Ho Ho than Gunga din bin it

Yet those Characters who mould dreams of Tom Sawyer
