Boatchaser:
Just out of intrest ,what happen at DOW,s to bring them to an end ,or did they just fold
Although we were at the time i suspect the biggest independant middle east firm in the uk, we did not go quite as far as some of the better known firms such as Astrans ,and transarabian, I think the furthest we went was Baghdad.
However,greed got to the bosses and they tried fiddling the taxman, the result was liquidation, putting us all on the dole.
Some of us got other International work, and some never went abroad again after Dow.
Quite a few of us that are left still have a reunion every year.
