JB ... or BJ nearly gets it right.

Well, my Dec issue of Diver arrived this AMand, low and behold, the latest version of my Ocean Reef FFM gets a review (P98&99).

As a long time user of the aforementioned FFM I feel it is my duty to point out to the would be JEDI that he has made one glaring mistake and I am not amused!!!! Waddya mean THINK I look cool?? Bloody cheek I call it ..... I know I look cool in my FFM.

Furthermore, the irony of the situation is that I'm really warm and toasty whilst being cool at the same time. Maybe this phyical contradiction may assist those slightly more knowledgeable than I to finally resolve the mysteries of the universe?

As for looking like an alien ...... well ......... it is certainly true that there are days I don't wish to be classified as a member of the human race or, at least, a large proportion of it.

FWIW, I think the mask pictured in the review has a QC hose to the reg which makes becoming unpermanently attached to the cylinder quite easy + I might have mentioned about gas switches but ............. other than that it covers all the pertinent points and I may well have written that article myself which must entitle me to a cut of a certain dive scribe's enormous annual salary? I am prepared to settle for a freebie trip on the pretence of diving Bikini Atoll with my FFM?

In conclusion I am ending this piece of masterful prose ........................ NOW!
