Scotland
Hello,
I hope that you are well and have had a lovely weekend.
Today I thought Id share a couple of simple shots from a recent hike up Loch Brandy.
Loch Brandy is a superb example of a mountain corrie, backed by craggy slopes and cradling a perfect loch. The walk has the benefit of a very well-constructed path making this a good short and relatively easy hillwalk.
Thanks

Happy Monday.
A couple of images from an offshore work site.
Hello,
Today id like to share an image of the Friarton Bridge in Scotland.
With me working in Aberdeen and travelling the 350 miles each weekend home, i have driven over the bridge numerous times and the scale over the amazing Scottish landscape has always been a nice part pf the journey.
Friarton Bridge Is a steel box girder bridge with a concrete deck, across the River Tay on the southeastern outskirts of Perth, Scotland. The bridge was designed by Freeman Fox and Partners with the team being led by Dr Oleg Kerensky. The bridge was a pair of steel box girders (one under each carriage way) 4.3 m wide overlaid by a lightweight concrete deck. It forms part of the eastern spur of the M90 between junctions 10 (Craigend) and 11 (Broxden), the most northerly motorway junction in the UK. It also forms part of the important east coast road corridor from Edinburgh through to Dundee and Aberdeen. It was the first large box girder bridge to be built to the Merrison Rules which were introduced in 1973 after the collapse during construction of three box girder bridges during the 1970s. The bridge was strengthened during the 2000s to cope with modern traffic loadings.
Have a good weekend.

Hello,
Today ill like to show how an oil rig offloads new supplies, which range from equipment, tools and most importantly food!
While it is down to the crane operator to offload the containers from the supply vessel, it is all orchestrated by the offshore materials coordinator.
The materials controller duties:
Arranging for the despatch and delivery of materials and goods
Making sure that materials and equipment have the necessary certification.
Ensuring that relevant stores are aware of deliveries and that they allocate space for goods on arrival.
Chasing up suppliers to ensure goods and materials are delivered on time to meet business needs.
Maintaining the materials management system.
Preparing reports on materials receipt and delivery and on the performance of suppliers
Acting as a focal point for suppliers and internal departments for questions about materials scheduling, problems, and the like.
