You mean that there is no UK commercial bell diving school. There are several still strongly functioning teaching surface demand and SCUBA.[b said:Quote[/b] (Adrian Kelland @ Jan. 05 2004,22:20)]The owners of Fort William training centre (and also 990 mag) have gone bust

I'll PM ya Adrian. Best not discuss 'certain matters' on an open line![b said:Quote[/b] (Adrian Kelland @ Jan. 06 2004,09:02)]Hmm[b said:Quote[/b] (Bren Tierney @ Jan. 05 2004,23:34)]And, it would appear, no small victory for Ron Mahoney and his new 'Beyond the Blue' mag!
I don't think the closing of Fort William should be viewed as a victory for a magazine.
I realise it's easy to lay blame at mis-management of both mag and Fort William Bren, but it's likely they were run by different people.

Apologies on the bell diving confusion. Live and learn.[b said:Quote[/b] (Phill @ Jan. 06 2004,09:44)]You mean that there is no UK commercial bell diving school.

Also I'll think that you'll find that Stenmar haven't gone bust - they've simply pulled out of that well known loss making set up at Fort William.

Perhaps Fort William and Bovisand were secretly run by the same people.![]()
Ah, the first comedy program specially written for Divers. Where all the ideas for 'The Office' came from.[b said:Quote[/b] (Bren Tierney @ Jan. 06 2004,12:38)]...the TV show 'Diving School' was anything to go by?![]()
