I've finally done some posh gas dives this year, and have had the chance to record a new Posh Gas Storytime. This time it's Jack and the Beanstalk. Hope you enjoy it! For those that don't know, Posh Gas Storytime is my YouTube channel, where I read various stories (mostly children's) while...

Myself and a colleague are in the process of teaching our non-diving colleagues to dive (we both work part-time as an instructor and DM outside of our full time jobs). One of our colleagues had an issue where her ears would clear, but then re-block without changing depth. I think in about 25...

I'll be travelling to MA in mid-June for my sister's wedding. I'll probably be in town in the region of a week to 10 days depending how much holiday I have left at that point in time. I'm hoping to get a day or 2 of diving in while I'm in town. Any recommendations of site, charters, cylinder...

Just a quick course report from the rec 3 course I just finished with Rich Walker (there will be a more detailed course report in the November-ish issue of GUE-UKs Wetnotes). Last Saturday, I flew out from the UK to Croatia and met the rest of the team for Rec 3. All we needed to do was get...

A bit of video taken over the weekend down in Plymouth. Head mounted go pro 3 white. Absolutely stunning vis on both wrecks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWBiC1xh_LE&feature=youtu.be

I'll be in Miami next Friday (April 18th) for the day. My flight lands at 11:20 in the morning and I'm just wondering if there is any good diving that can be had? Also, does anyone want to go for a dive? I'm nearing the 400 dive mark, dive weekly here in the UK, and just want to get wet and...

This may be a long shot, but anyone sailing on the Carnival Liberty the week of April 26th that wants to dive in Grand Turk on May 1st? I'm hoping to dive with Blue Water Divers, but they need at least one other person (who has been diving in the past 2 years) for the boat to go out. I'm a...

I'm home sick from work today, so I figured now is good time to write up my course report. This was the second time I took fundies. The last time I took it, I walked away with a provisional and failed miserably every time I attempted an upgrade. Passing fundies became a sort of quest for me. I...

so i've just gotten a new computer and can finally start editing some video i've taken with my gopro. i downloaded cineform, but i'm kind of at a loss on how to use the program, and cut/edit clips etc. any help would be greatly appreciated. many thanks in advance

i went diving today, with a good size group of people (i think 9 of us in total). all of us were at a different experience level (brand new diver to assistant instructor, single tank to twinset to rebreather) from a variety of different agencies (gue, padi, bsac, saa). thing is, it didn't...

As the title says, I'm looking for some thin moisture wicking socks for under my drysuit. I currently wear lavacore socks underneath my compressed neo socks. Problem is, my feet sweat profusely (I sweat through the lavacore and my feet were freezing). So thoughts, opinions, recommendations, etc

I'm headed back home to MA for a couple of weeks in April. I'm planning on taking my dive kit (minus tanks and weights) with me because I feel like doing a little bit of diving while I'm home. Just wondering what some good fundies level sites are as well if it's possible to rent a set of...

Hello, i can no longer log onto chat with my iPhone or iPad. Any suggestions?

Hey all, I'm looking for a buddy to dive mid-week with. I can easily get to Wraysbury, but if someone is willing to drive elsewhere, I will definitely pitch in for petrol. Come April, I will also be able to drive. Main thing I want to do is bimble about and then work on ascents from depth (so...

Hello, I have a new undersuit that I need to figure out my weighting on. I'm hoping to head to Wraysbury first thing Monday morning for to do one long-ish dive, maybe around 75-90 minutes (I have to work at 3:45 in Central London, so I need to get back home to Kingston, shower, and get my ass...

Hey guys, I'm selling my metalsub xre500 rechargeable torch to help fund the purchase of a new torch. I've used it on about 15-20 dives, it's like new. Asking £100 ono if willing to pick it up from London area. £105 ono if shipped. Comes with the charger. Pictures available on request.

I'm currently living in the UK, and have a set of hog d-1 regs. Eventually, they are going to need to go in for service, and shipping them back to the States isn't really a financially viable option for me. I know I can get the service kits from DRIS, and my local shop is willing to service my...

Hello, I've just finished my Fundies course and received a provisional, which I am happy with. I would, however, like to eventually upgrade that to a rec pass. I'm just wondering if there are any gue divers in the uk (besides you d! I know you'll dive with me :-) ) who wouldn't mind helping a...

Hello, I am looking for a buddy for this coming Monday, 27/6. I would like to go to somewhere besides Wraysbury (although if no one else can go anywhere, I will take Wraysbury). I currently have 75 dives, about 25 or so in cold water. I'm preparing for fundies, but you don't need to be gue/dir...

Heya, I'm just wondering if anyone wants to go for a couple of dives this coming bank holiday. I live in Kingston and can easily get to Wraysbury easily. If anyone from the London area wants a buddy, and wants to head anywhere else, I am more than willing to pitch in gas money for a ride :-)...
