Have to go with the majority on this and repeat whats been said a dozen times already but to be honest youd be mental to do anything but a drysuit in the UK.

As for added expense of an undersuit there is nothing to say you cant just use jogging bottoms, sweatshirt and thermals till you get a proper undersuit, cheap fleece jackets work for a lot of folk as well.

Wetsuits are very cheap and should be considered as just a new outfit for going on holiday.
I paid £25 for my 3mm shorty and £27 for my 3mmm full length. You can get a pretty good bargain 5mm full length for £77 from lomo in glasgow who do mail order.

Just go buy a drysuit and get the appropriate training, you wont regret it at all.

Have fun and to quote O'Three "Diving should be enjoyed not endured".
