Just curious,

On my way back from Mull, I decides to ring the missus....
she gets a phone call which is inaudibile, something like...
"*****oh hell******" - then nothing. Having recieved it from me and knowing I'm "diving" what does she do?

What would your significant other do?

(it was actually part of a repeated "hello"!)

Cheers Paul

PS she did nowt - what does that say?

LOL - When I was in Scapa this year, I'd been calling Kirstie between dives,
even though I'd said I'd just check in at the end of each day, but on the Thursday lunch we moored where I could not get a signal, so I blissfully slept through the surface interval, then called her after the second dive, only to find that she'd been very worried to say the least.

Bloody mobiles are more trouble than they're worth.

She'd call back, if she didnt get me, she'd call my buddy (assuming it was my son), if she couldnt get him, she'd send text messages and be worried sick.

I always used to call my wife after a day's bike racing to see how she was getting on and whinge about how badly I did. It was only after I stopped that she admitted that she got more wound up during the day until that call.

I suspect AJ knew. He often said "Have you rung Mum?" when we went for a meal (much of this was pre-mobile phones so it was callbox stuff).

Actually when I had a ding she heard quite soon. No news was definitly good news.

Check the insurance Just kidding

Hubs would try and ring back, but if there was no signal he would get no answer. Then he would worry himself silly until we made contact. Then when I got home, he would demonstrate how much he was concerned by going off on a huge rant about how worried he was. Is this normal married life?

After years of me in the Balkans and N.Ireland i think she has given up worrying and just buys more insurance every so often One day her jackpot will land

Does she know yet that you dive with 'The Dude' if so has she upped it recently

[Paul Oliver]

I think someone told her as i noticed the premium had gone up after Selsey and again when i put the Moldavia dive on the calender

I still cannot remember if i have told her about "Le Dude Plongee Trip" yet, thats bound to add something on

l'm not suprised, after all you could have got a nasty bite from an angry conger once l'd got it out and in your direction.
