Diver survives 58 hour ordeal after being presumed dead off Guernsey

[David_J]

Just heard from a pal in Guernsey it was all a big scam!!!!!!!

Nothing in yet to confirm, but it is apparently breaking news (within last hour) there that he was away for a few days in England then faked the whole thing on his return when he found he was supposed to be missing. His wife is reprted as saying there are a few issues they neeed to sort out

Don't talk rubbish, any wetsuit will keep a warm layer of water between the sea and the person

Come come dear boy, the whole point of a proper fitting wet suit is to ensure that it "trapped" a layer of water between the suit and the body...

Anyone who has done some diving and ever worn an "easy to fit wet suit" will know that if it is too loose, it flushes cold water throughout and you never get warm!

I don't have a Spray Hood on my Lifejacket. I use a Gimp Mask. And "just in case" I wear it all the time.

I find it also helps me to "relax". /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

What I want to know is "does Gludy still have to eat his hat?"
