Anyone who smashes my gnomes in Kenmore Point will cause me great annoyance.... and the person who added the improbably large "appliance" to my gnome made the rest of the gnomes very embarrased

Would this apply to people leaving aircraft, cars and old boats too?

And people that dive on quarries will always keep there thieving hands of the attractions and wouldn't dream of removing some worthless piece of shit like they do when they dive in the sea......

So you think it's acceptable to leave this rubbish on historic wrecks? Why not leave a few Coke cans and Mars Bar wrappers there too while you're at it?

I find that really annoying. It's like graffiti in my view. No objection to people putting stuff in the underwater theme-parks like Stoney, but 'wild' dive sites are different IMHO.

When I go diving, it's usually to see piece of history (wreck) or area of natural beauty. I don't want to see some garden ornaments or other crap that someone has thought it would be funny to leave down there.

There's enough rubbish in the oceans as it is, without people needlessly adding to it.

I can't understand the mentality of somebody who thinks that garden gnomes somehow enhance the natural beauty of the ocean floor any more than the sad fucks who think that gnomes do something to improve the appearance of their gardens.

As for someone that can find room in their life to maintain a website devoted to such a pursuit; words fail me.

Yeah, you never see anyone at 30m with poor buoyancy and crap finning techniques, do you?
well it seems like every time i go to stoney in swimming along at 34 metres there always seems to be someone hurtling past me trying to dig in the silt !

im not sure that bouyancy issues are at fault rather total twats acting like children with big hammers and want to break stuff as they can bare others to have a bit of fun !
