  1. 1. Don't Tell Mum I Work On The Rigs, She Thinks I'm A Piano Player In A Whorehouse

    She Thinks I'm A Piano Player In A Whorehouse

    A raucous, candid memoir of life on offshore oil rigs that mixes black-humoured anecdotes about dangerous work, crude camaraderie and long separations from home with sharp observations on class, masculinity and the absurdities of industrial life; packed with vivid characters, practical jokes, near-misses and homesick longing, it captures both the brutal routines and the unexpected warmth of a transient community while balancing humour and pathos.
