Newbie on the block!
Err... how are you supposed to introduce yourself on such an asteemed site as this?

Well... it's a bit like this,see.... I know this guy call Wilbo, some of you may know him from this and a few other web sites. Apparently he's been about a bit! Thing is, I've known him for about 19 years! So... if you want a few tales or stories please bribe me accordingly when you see me at a few dive sites!

I started to dive 14 years ago, but just after training (PADI!) my regular dive buddy burst his ear drum, and I didn't bother taking it any further. A recent trip to the Maldives and a wife suggesting I get back into it caused me to redo what I learned before, and so I got together with Nick Terry at Vobster, and also dived with Wilb, Howard Payne and GLOC to get a bit of water time in before warmer diving.

16 dives in the Maldives and 1 x Nitrox and 1 x AOW certification later and I've recaught the bug!

Explain me this.... how is it I can dive to 30m in the Maldives and still have an ambient temperature in the water hotter than I run my shower in the morning!?!

With kindest regards, festive greetings and merry cheer at this new year - let me leave you with this final thought.

Thought for the day: It's hard to fly like an eagle when you're surrounded by turkies!

SJP!

Hiya Stu!

Nice intro!

I must admit I saw SJP and for some reason thought Sarah Jessica Parker... You don't look like her do you? I'm sure you'll get plenty of buddy offers if you do...

A very warm welcome Stu, nice intro, looking forward to reading your posts. Get stuck in. And happy New Year to you and Mrs Stu - good on her encouraging you to start again.

However, if it were me, l wouldn't let it be known that you know Wilbo and have dived with part of team Foxturd.

This does mean that any further yders you meet will seem very friendly and good divers in comparison.

Diving Dude (or Howard, as I'm reliably advised)..

Wilbo is currently indisposed here in Wales at the moment getting beer-ised, and so he's asked me to respond accordingly after the beep...












... beep beep beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep .........
