Ouch! That's gotta sting!


Coat on... Out the door!

John Prescott, that fine socialist, once went on a "fact finding mission" to the Maldives paid for by the tax payer where he did some diving and IIRC had a bit of a row with the guide who apparently didn't have a clue (despite having hundreds of dives probably)

I was in Dahab last year and we were joined by some German Guy who was supposed to be a TV star in Germany. Our guide knew him but then she was German

Unlike me who plays golf because I cant go diving all the time


Tiger would be my ideal dive buddy Hes up for mid week and if were blown out we can go and play golf.

Tiger if your reading this get your people to phone my people


Mind you, I only have builders and laborors so best to PM me direct

Had Leo DiCaprio on our boat when he was filming The Beach (and his very interesting friend)
Dived with Frederick Forsythe (amazing fellow)
Sharon Stone looks stunning in a wetsuit too ... (kept her knees together)
All in Thailand

Although the film they were in , Into the Blue, was pretty average (IMHO), it was worth it just to oogle him. And also the perfect film if you're married. Wifey gets too drool over him, hubbie gets to dream over her! Oi, I said DREAM, dirty gits!!!

They learnt to dive, apparently, for the film. Though no doubt you'll correct me if I'm wrong. And if that was the case, they did pretty well as inexperienced divers to come across as comfortably as they did! I've just looked at some piccies of his on the website and I've come over all unnecessary! Not good at just before 7 in the morning!

He has enough minions to dive for him and tell him how it was

I was on a dive boat with Colin Charvis (ex Welsh Rugby Captain (below)) whilst he did his wreck dive for his PADI Advanced. I have to say, he made the 15ltr tank on his back look like a 10ltr



Colin is on the right the other bloke is Uncle Ben who makes microwave rice dishes and sauces.

i remember being on a boat out of United Arab Emirates (the pointy bit,Musandam) and we passed a flotilla of boats that apprently belonged to one of the Sheiks. There were 2 liveaboard size motor yachts another smaller support boat and then what appeared to be a large ship with crane and assortment of Rhibs on it.
