Fortunately I take all my gas away with me, so can easily deal with a weeks diving. So the only fills that I need are for a suit bottle.

Although coming up soon I do have 9 consecutive days of mixed gas diving. So in these cases I will do my own blending (100% O2 and helium) kept in the back of the car, then take the cylinders to a dive shop for them to air top.

[quote=Steve Jones;921593]All the talk has been about the showing of cert cards. These cards say what gas you are qualified to dive with.

So can anyone tell me what card I need to produce to go into a shop and fill my 15 litre cylinder with 100% helium.

Because some idiots were breathing 100% helium to show how clever they were to talk with a squeeky voice, and then croaking. (Darwin's theory in action) they started to put some O2 in there to prevent this, not sure how much, but I believe it is about 16%.

I think the "kiddies" in the most of incidents were somewhat older. By volunteering to remove themselves from the gene pool they were doing society a favour.
