 | Moving to UK from Canada Hello everyone! I'm a Canadian moving to the UK sometime in September. I just finished my DIR-F course here in Canada and the crowd at Northern Tech Divers in Kingston, Ontario, Canada recommended this board to hook up with some fellow DIR divers in the UK. I'm planning on living somewhere near London and I know very little about the UK diving environment (except that I apparently can't use my Canadian tanks!) Any advice or recommendations about which shops are good (and tolerate a DIR mentality  will be greatly received!Thanks! Mike |

 | Hey Mike, there are quite a few of us in the London area. Let us know when you arrive and we can hook up. Dan at Northern Tech is one cool dude (we did our cave 1 together many years ago). Unfortunately, none of the UK GUE instructors are as cool as Dan  John. Quote: (Originally Posted by MikeMilner)  Hello everyone! I'm a Canadian moving to the UK sometime in September.

 | Mike, first of all, congrats...  Second of all, let us know if you're up for a dive before you go. We're at the quarry most Wednesdays, and usually in the river on the weekends. Send me an e-mail if you'd like to go for a dip! Oo.. did I mention.. congrats?? :D:D |
