| I don't know what all you fannies were crying about. Tech 1 is a piece of pi$$  It was great to meet you Paul and hope to see you soon for some Plymouth diving. Big thanks to Rich W and Brian Allen who interned on our course. I am sure that he will be a great compliment to Rich as GUE's next UK Tech instructor, with some great experiences that he was willing to share with us. The highlight of my week was meeting Dougie "Get out of my way or i'll kill you" Allen. What a guy!! He restores my faith in the human race with his two fingers stuck up pointing at political correctness. I salute you sir. Sykesy Last edited by Neil S; June 23rd, 2008 at 03:30 PM.

I think tech1 courses in the UK should all be run from Plymouth just for the added value of Dougie skippering! What a complete star! |

I really like the new style of this course. Much better than the old BS cock waving approach it used to have. At no point during the week did i want to cry or punch anyone, despite Andy's best efforts. Any of them diving related?
