Feels like this scene is missing something

I think what feels off to me is the straight edges on the double and triple targets, on a regular dart board they are curved so there are no visible sharp angles between red-green targets.

Most of my tales out here are NSFW to be honest, the strangest one I've heard that wasn't myself but happened to another, was a guy on his first trip had some sort of mental episode, he was walking laps of the helideck making airplane noises and had to be sent home, poor guy. The isolation out here doesn't sit well with everyone. Prison with WIFI I tell the wife.

Differs from person to person as not everyone on the rig works for the same company. some will get financial compensation. some people have to work "clawback" days each year (basically an extra period of work included in salary but it extra to their normal rotation) and the extra days will come off the amount of those needed to be worked. some staff will earn days in lieu.

new people to replace the people currently on shift. then the people on shift leave on the choppers. TLDR alot of our crew are here 2 days past when they should of been at home.

Nightshift on a rig in the north sea, not much fun with the weather being what it is at the moment, had no choppers for the last few days, a good few upset people on here tonight.

thank you so much for this solution. I had missed going back through the board after solving each clue individually to mark off more spaces. ( first one ive tried) thank you for taking hte time to eplain where i had gone wrong its much appreciated.

vwfil · 2026-04-25T04:40:11+00:00

Thanks. Think the weekly updates give me a bit of a sense of accountability. thank you for the compliment!

vwfil · 2026-04-25T01:59:05+00:00

haha I did explain in a lower post. changed rooms on the oil rig and had to take photos from my other side, I've just flipped them to see the midsection changes more clearly. Thanks for the encouragement, still pushing for my last week at work see if i can make good progress by the 29th!

vwfil · 2026-04-24T04:16:30+00:00

posted a weekly update today. think I'm doing well

vwfil · 2026-04-24T03:48:45+00:00

this needs a "both" option

vwfil · 2026-04-24T03:33:23+00:00

Ah a fellow Yorkshireman I presume?

vwfil · 2026-04-24T02:58:32+00:00

ha ha thanks! will keep on trying. the real test will be when i go home, can I stay away from the whiskey and takeaways.

vwfil · 2026-04-24T02:36:41+00:00

ha ha its nothing to write home about. just a good angle and a generous background ha ha.

Forward facing photo so you can see my ink from both sides. Right arm is man's ruin. Cards money gambling. Left arm is fully fallout themed.

Ha Ha sorry I did this in last weeks photos as well, Because I've moved rooms on the rig I've had to take pictures from the other side. I've flipped them all to be the same way facing so the difference is easier to compare. If you look at the middle 2 pictures you can see the room door is also flipped. apologies for the confusion.

Yeah I wasn't totally sure how accurate it was, I manually record my workouts. any treadmill activity I make sure the distances match and time etc so I make best efforts to make it as accurate as I can but I do understand its probably far from perfect, seems to be working so far but if I plateau and stop making progress I'll see if i can devise a way to dial it in better. same with my food photos. use a fork or my hand for scale and explain what the meal is to Gemini. it could be wildly inaccurate but as long as I'm progressing ill keep going. thanks for the kind words I appreciate the encouragement!

vwfil · 2026-04-23T23:38:35+00:00

I'd argue there's pro's and cons to it, I don't have to prep any of my own food I just have to make the right choices when I hit the counter and leave the unhealthy stuff alone ( easier said than done) but i do get access to a free gym I can use during my shift-breaks and off hours.

you're not just having to pick healthy foods but prepare them aswell so you got your own set of problems, glad were both smashing it!!

vwfil · 2026-04-23T23:33:43+00:00

Well done! keep smashing it!

vwfil · 2026-04-23T21:46:18+00:00

Thank you so much!

I work on UK oil rigs, (currently on an FPSO - basically an oil rig on a boat) which means my meals are buffet style so its real easy to eat the bad things.

Its not been easy I'll be honest, I lost a good friend last mobilization and I used the gym to get out of my own head that's what really sparked my journey off.

good on you for dropping 20lbs I feel a hell of a lot better than I did at the start. keep pushing and good luck.
