Getting What's App working without you phone

[bigpaulgla]

I am after finding a way to copy my phones functions onto a tablet than will basically allow me too use all the wifi features of my phone with out having my phone with me.

I work offshore and have to leave my mobile phone in a bag at the heliport for 4 weeks and this is like loosing my main communication device.

I use mostly whats app for keeping in contact with everyone on the main land and this seems to be the stumbling point in this question.

Idealy if I could get a tablet to run my whats app account without my phone this would be great.

Whatsap runs using your phone number so I don't think you'll have any joy without a sim... Maybe another internet based media? Skype? Kik?
