I know, shameless plug for http://www.othree.co.uk/ again... But my
drysuit decided it didn't want to be a drysuit at the weekend )-: The
Zip was knackered. Not bad after 6 years though! So after a phone call
earlier in the week, and a visit to them today, I now have a loaner and
am on the list for a new suit - August with a bit of luck, and I can go
diving tomorow. (& next week!)

I've also decided to go for a traditional shoulder zip instead of a
front-loader. Sean at O'Three said I'd done good to make it last 6 years -
they do see more problems with the front-loaders than the shoulder zips
- I guess they just get more wear and tear... So how am I going to zip
myself up when I go for a little scallop dive out of Brixham now!

And I also decided to splash out on a new wetsuit to use in the Red Sea
at the end of the month too. Their boots are good too - no zips!

Cheers,

Gordon

Friends have told me that a wire coat hanger is almost invaluable in
such a situation (-:

I've heard that a LandRover wing mirror is also effective. I should hasten
to add that I believe it still needs to be attached to said vehicle to be
effective.
