Umm that's about it. Could not find a set of twin 7's that took my fancy.
Anyone know of cheap suppliers for twin 7 (300 bar) MDE manifold, banded.

Well I managed to get away with only buying what I went to buy, unfortunately it was very expensive!
2 O'Three MTM drysuits (one of them was actualy change my order from off the peg to MTM)
1 Vyper computer @£185
and a new mask, spent hours running round and trying all the masks on. Eventualy the only one that seemed to fit realy well was a Cressi "Big Eyes". It looks ugly as hell and I suspect clearing it will be an art form! But it does fit properly.
And that brings my spending on Dive kit in the last 16 days to over £2.5K (why oh why did I encourage my wife to learn to dive!)

<font color='#8D38C9'>Nothing - apart from an expensive beer at lunchtime which failed to loosen my wallet. Didn't spot the YD'rs but I got to the bar late. Pissed off at 2:30 and went diving...

Gone and got myself a nice shiny yellow D4R torch for £74. Mind so did my two buddies so that makes us the sad yellow torch triplets.

Strange really, they had 'Pixie', 'Mincing Midget', Deliriously Happy and Camp Medium' and 'Hephalump', but not the 'Large' I needed (other than the one I tried on, but which was 'promised to someone else and already sold'). Bugger.

and that's all I'm saying!

<font color='#000080'>Treated myself to a MTM O'Three drysuit - couldn't resist after all the good press!! Also got a Mosquito for £180. Too many other shiny things to mention as well though! A great day out. Unfortunately, I too missed the YD'ers. Hope to meet some on trips next season!

<font color='#0000FF'>After phoning cameras-underwater in the week to see if they were doing show prices on the Sony P10 and housing and was told she didn't know. Went on Sunday and they had sold out. Phoned today to see if they can do the same deal and was told if they could get hold of the stock they would. Now wasn't that nice.

Oh, shit I now have to pay for it.
As for Divers Warehouse, my mate Paul was trying to get a twin set and was quoted the same price as the website, which isn't very good, he didn't bother.
