Talking Oooh, I've just ordered me a twinset!
Well, I've gone and done it.

I've ordered twin 300 bar 7s with an isolator manifold and SS bands (I shall, of course, rue not taking Fiona's advice about the 232s when I feel how heavy they are, but I'm going to give them a go ). Oh, and a Dive Rite Rec Wing and Harness (to go with the Ali backplate currently in my understair cupboard). I got a good price from Cormeton locally.

There's a parcel waiting for me at my neighbour's that I am assuming will be the Scubapro R390 second stage I won on ebay last weekend, to go with the MK25AF first stage I won a few weeks back. Hopefully I'll have everything I need by next week or the week after.

The down side to this is that I'll end up back in silty-bottomed Ellerton to do my first kit check, but the place has its uses (it's half the distance than Crappers and half the price).

It's a good job I'm going out with a bunch of divers tomorrow to say farewell to Helen FH, 'cos no-one else is going to get any sense out of me this weekend unless they want to talk about twinsets!

Thanks to everyone who has listened to me prattle on about this and given me good advice (you know who you are), especially to Turbie for his patience.

Nice....

Take your torch to Ellerton, was there yesterday doing some kit checks before diving tomorrow, and its was at best 1m viz. On the bright side the water was very warm at 12Deg C

All part of my master plan, I made Mr Helen get shot of the jetski and replace it with a considerably smaller bike, which now takes up only a small corner. The garage is mine, I tell you, MINE! *Laughs Maniacally* Mwahahahahahhahahahaha!

I'm hoping shutdowns won't be a problem. If not I might have to get a slobknob - or invert them.
