Re Santi, have you checked recently? I'd heard it was getting better. As for the price, if you buy a Rolls Royce, you don't expect it to be cheap. Santi market themselves as a premium brand, so... As...

Nothing that a little dedication and persistance won't solve! My 100 year-old billhook on the otherhand, would be fairly quick and probably rather gruesome. The modern ones are quite light and lack...

Yeah, it's not exactly a great line-up. The tide of the Brexit fiascos washed away any of the decent Tories (as much as they could ever be considered decent... perhaps "moderate" is a better word, or...

Sadly, I expect he'll survive this and then claim it's a mandate for more of the same.

Not sure how big your cup is and what kibble you're using but PuppyT has the equivalent of about 1.5 normal-sized mugfulls per day.

Rotties don't eat as much as you'd expect IME, especially give their size. I thought they'd eat us out of house and home but actually, whilst they need a decent portion size to be sure, it's not a...

The old sea-dog who's funeral I went to last week loved country (no idea why - he was a man of fine taste usually, especially in whisky and spirits generally!) and insisted on "Ring of Fire" by...

Mouldy cheese rind is always a winner with PuppyT. The sweaty bit from the back of the fridge that';s been there for months, the stinkier the better. Pilchards are a favourite too but his is just in...

Didn't work for our divers in Jan. They refused to carry the lot, despite having copies of the MSDS to hand, having checked with the airline in advance and even the label saying "this stuff is ok to...

It's an interesting idea for sure. I have a few more thoughts/questions for you though.



I'm struggling to visualise this thing at the moment. I haven't yet come across a rhib that was that...

If anyone is looking for a JJ, I know a chap who is on the verge of selling his.

Can't say it would appeal to me to be honest. If 'm going CCR diving, I'd rather be going more than 1 day at a time, have everything I need stored on a boat and rhibs aren't the nicest kitting up...

Fourth Element and Ursuit used to sell one back in the day. Discontinued now. I vaguely recall Mares made one too?



That's the problem with them. Mine lasted a good few years and it was...

This one's more like it - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-europe-guernsey-57105163

Is this a Beaver one or the original 44 Delayedaid?

I'm dead lucky it seems. Mine doesn't generate false positives. No idea why, as I'm doing the same everyone else is doing but regardless, the only time it has alarmed is in a genuine CO2 problem...

Depends on how you want to approach it. In theory, you're spending a lot of money on something that you should never need to use. I've only heard mine alarm when we deliberately tested it out to see...

They sell kits of eBay for them - o-rings and battery and sometimes even the grease. On your head be it if you use them though (I might have used the odd one or 6 over the years). You might want to...

It is an OSTC though - my 2n gets charge periodically just because I can. It seems to be able to manage 2 week's worth of diving holiday and still be at about 50% (or at least it was until they...

Got to love a generalisation like that. That is clearly why anyone English who doesn't like her feels that way...

+2. Really nice bunch.

+1 on these two. I'd also add Swanage, Portland, Newquay, Porthkerris and Plymouth as worth a look. For inland sites, Vobster isn't too far away and well worth a visit.

We have a Peregrine you can look at if you are near Nottingham? FWIW, it's smaller than you might expect, and again FWIW, a D5 is bigger than you would expect. I can try to take a photo of them...

No idea; never used them. They probably have the same scheduling as some of the couriers: assumes they ride at 15mph at all times and deliveries take 30s; now get going - you have a timetable to keep...

Any of those 3 will do though the Aqualung one isn't as big as you'd think. I think the Suunto D5 is pretty clear too from what I've seen.
