Willo arrives late as usual

Davey Willo · November 24th, 2005, 10:21 PM

Hello All

Thanks to NikNaks and Gledders for giving me the heads up on this here new place to play, as usual I stroll in late but hey, I'm here now :D

For those that don't know me I'm Dave Williamson, internet persona of Davey Willo, started diving around 2000, found a little low res video on t'intyweb called DIR 1 about 2002 and thought "blow me, whats this thing with the long hose then?" Been hooked ever since.

Started with SAA, onto TDI and now I'm GUE Tech 1, which of course is my crowning achievement in my eyes, tough tough course which left me mentally, physically and financially drained but boy was it worth it..

Cave 1 next, although the lure of Tech 2 is calling as I'm reading about and longing to dive wrecks that are just too bloody far out of my reach... we'll see if the bank manager is in a good mood eh..

Look forward to some good crack and debates without all of the regular bullsh*t that goes on elsewhere.

All the best and hope to dive with every goddamn one of you in the near and not so near future

Dave :D
