Once we'd parked and taken out the cameras we did have a manager from Dorbyl Marine (who are refurbing that rig) come over to send us away. But it was our lucky day - he's also a keen amateur photographer, so he stood around chatting long enough for us to get the shots. He's offered to get me closer to the rig one day, so if you send me your phone number (via Glynnis) and *if* I do get a call with the offer, I can phone you and we can go together? The rig's leaving for the DRC soon. R26 million has been spent on it over the last 6 months.
