  | Well what do you expect! They see a set of bright lights in formation and suddenly they get flashbacks to the film 'The Abyss' Although if they are expecting to find intelligent life forms they are going to be some what dissapointed  I'm more concerned about these tossers who suddenly come flying past on their gavins in formation. You try to throw an out of air at them but they are 100 yards in front of you before you get chance to flash the torch.  Daz Last edited by Clare Gledhill; January 17th, 2006 at 10:03 PM.

Now I had impression you were thinking to yourself - "these DIR divers on gavins are like buses, none come along for ages and then two come along at once" :DDaz Of course you rebreather buddy was too busy graffiti'ing the boat to notice the light signal or scooter flying past him - bless him it's all that practice peering at handsets |

Despite the fact I was immediatly in front of them giving them the stop sign (and I even used the accepted DIR stop hand signal - see I'm multilingual)Just like I was ignored by the posse of DIR divers that swam past when I was stuck under the car by the crushing works. Situational awareness, don't make me laugh....... they don't even have enough situational awareness to avoid a 2 ton lump of metal (commonly known as a Landrover!) Daz |

| GUE Instructor Site Admin  | Sorry to say it Janos but when I got near Daz in the water I could feel the vibes coming from him saying... "So, when he passes out, stash the breather in the tunnel for later collection and say I had to sacrifice his kit to save him - they'll never guess" Get used to it, he took the same approach to my Salvo :D sorry for the thread hijack

At least you admit I might make an effort to attempt to save him. With you I was just looking for a suitable hiding place to hide your body. Daz |
