CEA were employed to pack and lash 77 units of Mud Skips, Cargo Baskets and Gas Racks into 14, 40ft HC containers, the cargo received was too wide to fit in to the containers in the conventional way and would have to be turned on its side. CEA would ready the containers for load out and transport them to port where the cargo would be shipped to Nigeria to be used in the offshore Oil & Gas sector.
PROCEDURE
Two wooden beams were placed on the floor in each of the containers, the cargo, on its side would be placed on these to ensure no damage occurred to the panels during loading, transportation and unloading. Lifting slings that would be used upon arrival in Nigeria were attached to each piece of cargo before packing.
A CEA reach stacker lifted each of the containers and placed them on to their sides upon wooden blocks. CEA fabricated specialised roller units to facilitate the loading, two units were placed underneath the front section to support the cargo while being loaded by forklift from the rear.
Mantiou 3.5 t forklift’s and 5 t pallet trucks loaded the cargo into the containers, both fork lifts and pallet trucks were covered with protective materials to prevent any damage to the cargo.
After all Mud Skips, Cargo Baskets and Gas Racks were loaded the CEA team lashed and secured them in place. Wooden chocks and stoppers were installed to further ensure no movement while transportation and shipping.
All necessary supporting documents were provided inside each container. A third party inspection team checked all loaded cargo and sealed the containers with the appropriate shipping tags. The containers were loaded on to flatbed trailers and transported to port to await shipping.

My road bike set up with aero bars, Road Morph bike pump, handlebar bag (which seriously needs a better mounting), and Carousel Design Works tail bag.
In the bags is my touring packing list , more or less. All the camping gear and clothing go in the rear and the electronics, tools, and lock go in the front.

An Air BP hydrant truck is packing away after re-fueling British Airways flight BA2688. It was connected to the central aviation fuel pipeline network and provides fuel to the aircraft. There is a significant advantage with hydrant systems when compared to fuel trucks, as fuel trucks must be periodically replenished.
The flexible caster-wheel supported pipe is held onto the truck by means of over-centre catches with long handles to give mechanical leverage. Here the operative is working his way from the rear and down the side. All casters are lifted clear of the ground.
Packing. I think we're set on sunscreen! And yes, I made myself a case for my plugs & cords & junk. & put in plastic pockets for labels. So maybe I'm a little anal. But I always forget what cords go to what!
This is how I packed my cups and got 52 wall panels along with a lot of other stuff.
Good packing to all of you, too!
Moving all your household goods and personal possessions from one house to another is a huge project that involves a large number of moving tasks waiting to be completed. Yes, the process of moving house is filled to the brim with all sorts of activities, and while some of them prove to be more testing than others, packing is the one known as the time consumption champion.
Considering all the time and efforts that are required while handling all of the shipping supplies, it’s no wonder that packing mistakes when moving are not a rare sight. To help you have a smooth and quick move to your new home, we have compiled a list of the top 10 common packing mistakes when moving house.
Naturally, any such list of moving mistakes would be worthless if adequate solutions were not given, so we have not forgotten to offer you the best ways to correct the common mistakes when packing for a move.
1. Not Having A Packing Strategy
One of the worst packing mistakes you can make is to start the process without having a clear packing strategy. Be mindful that packing on a random principle will only result in tons of wasted time and shattered nerves. Therefore, don’t even attempt it. Instead, create a packing calendar for each day you have at your disposal until Moving day and fill it in with day-by-day packing tasks.
2. Refusing Any Packing Help
Use advanced mathematics to avoid common packing mistakes. For example, if three heads are better than one, then six packing hands are much better than two.
Depending on the number of items found in your home and the time you have until the Big day, the packing task ahead of you may range from being hard to being simply impossible to complete by one person or even one single family. Another common packing mistake is to underestimate the time it will take you to have your entire home placed inside moving boxes and thus refuse any packing help as a result of your gross underestimation.
3. Leaving Packing For Later
When speaking of moving mistakes, leaving packing for later is one of the worst packing mistakes you can make, and maybe even the most dangerous one too. The later concept is never a good idea when it comes to packing up an entire household for moving. Instead, take advantage of the now concept and hopefully you won’t have to find out why moving house is often regarded as one of the most stressful events in one’s life.
The solution, of course, is to start placing your household goods in moving containers as soon as humanly possible. Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today, remember?
4. Not Obtaining Enough Packing Supplies
A common packing mistake when getting ready to move out of your current home is to find out that you don’t have enough packing supplies in the heat of the packing process. Think of all the time and nerves you will lose while you’re trying to get hold of all the extra packing materials you need to pack your possessions safely. So, look at this common packing error this way – it’s always better to have acquired more packing supplies than you will need than to run short in the most inconvenient moment there is.
5. Packing All Your Possessions Without Sorting Them First
There’s nothing wrong in packing all your possessions after you have sorted them out first. Remember that inventorying and sorting your household items is something you must do unless you wish to make the costliest packing mistakes of them all.
6. Packing Forbidden Items
A common mistake when packing for moving is to initiate the packing process only to have it interrupted after learning that some of the goods you have packed are considered a threat and your removal company won’t usually agree to transport them for you. And interruptions are the last thing you want when racing time to the finish line.
Be sure to obtain the list of forbidden items for transportation from your removal firm before the start of the packing operations.
7. Labelling Packed Boxes Only In Your Mind
Last but not least, a typical packing mistake when moving that can cost you plenty of post relocation time is to not label your packed boxes the way you should. Even if you have an infallible visual memory, the situation in your new home will probably be slightly different than how you picture it in your mind. The enormous piles of non-labelled moving containers can easily confuse even the most organized and observant person.

I'm going to India this Thursday. Landing in Mumbai Friday night and back to the airport Saturday morning for a domestic flight to Varanasi where I'll be for 3 days. The it's off to Agra (Taj Mahal), Rajasthan, Mumbai, and finally Goa where I'm photographing a two-day destination wedding at the end of October. I never would have, in my wildest dreams, imagined I'd ever visit India. Not only would I have characterized it as being outside of my comfort zone, I also wouldn't really have had any reason to go. As I packed my bags this evening the reality that I'm actually doing this set in. I also thought of all the other places that I've visited in relation to photography and thought of all the cool stuff I've seen. Like anything, there are some things I could gripe about in the industry, but this has to be the best job in the world! I also owe a great deal of gratitude to my wife who's always been supportive of my endeavours ...even when they take me away for days, or weeks.
I'm obviously incredibly excited about this trip, though concerned for my health, and of course my family that I'm leaving for a few weeks. I'm going to hopefully upload photos and give some updates here (and facebook) through the trip, blog-style.

So..
my camera broke..
my little, red, sixty-dollar camera
I'm going to miss him.. he only lasted about 15 1/2 months.
Pretty good for a cheap point and shoot :)
I'm going to be stealing my mother's from now on.. another cheap point and shoot.. happy, happy, joy, joy
I actually went shopping the other day.. I got some shorts and tank tops and was worn out after the first store, so I was just lying on the floor in the second store while my mom finished. Don't worry.. it was carpeted and quite comfy:)
But I went on a hike today through our land back through the hollow to the packing shed in my new green shorts and my hiking boots.. that I actually found in the boy's section at Kohls.. girl's hiking boots just aren't good enough for me, I guess. Anyhow..
The weather's gorgeous.. mid-80's today :) but when I went for my hike, the sun was setting and it was in the low/mid-70's
quite lovely :)
