Time for a bit of fun

OK all,

Time for a bit of fun

IIRC a couple of years ago we had a troll of the year competition and I
think it's about time it ran again.

Let's keep it all in this thread though.

I for one am particularly looking forward to entries from. Al, PeteS,
Keith, Nigel and Jason.

Someone else can think of some kind of scoring system.

SO......

Asbestos undies at the ready.

================================================== ==============

To all Diving Do0dz

I just got the best kit ever!

Nuffink you lot have got'll ever match it!

18l oxygen tank so I can stay down deep for hours
The cheapest mouthpiece I could so it don't matter if it gets smashed
(It's plastic so I can glue it)

I use my swimming goggles and a nosepeg cos the guy tried to con me into
buying a mask for 15 QUID (can you believeit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Flippers are plastic triangles glued to my trainers

I nicked a lifejacket from the last plane flight I took.

The whole lot cost less than 50 nicker.

You all whinge about the cost but you've just got your head up your
arses and want to keep people like me out of it.

I've just nicked a bottle of balloon gas so I'll be along to one of the
really deep trips later in the year and show you bunch of wussies how to
do it properly.

Luck

Bloody wuss - if it were a real troll he would be breathing straight off the
bottle without a mouthpiece.

Those two don't go together as the obvious scoring system
is to count the flames it generates.

My name (no spaces)@bigfoot which is a com.

I was thinking of getting one of those Spare Air thingies
as redundancy for those deeper R/B dives. Does anyone
know if they do a trimix version?

As a relative newbie, the only one I can think of is...

Does anybody know where I can get one of those new 300 bar cylinders? I think
they're a great idea as I will have nearly 30% more air.

Aye, I can remember when we used to dive blowin into a Tescos bag on
one arm as bouyancy control. To prevent common mode failures we used
to have a sainsbury's bag on the other arm..... And you try telling
that to kids of today and they won't believe you...
