ISSUE 14 ARCHIVE - EDITORIAL

Your Editor has just returned from a fine trip diving the Barrier Reef up in the ear of the dog's head, Queensland.

I do love the Aussies you know. Not only do they still consider a pie haute cuisine, but they also take cricket seriously. And, as we are now top of the world in that department, it makes it all the better.

But there is a dark side to Aussie cricket. Yes, you've guessed it – ever since Shane Warne started dating our fair English Rose, the 'face of Avon cosmetics' Liz Hurley, just about EVERY dive instructor on the Reef now has a spiky blonde haircut and fake orange tan to boot. All that hair bleach can't be doing the coral any good either.

Aussie instructors – there is only one Hurley. She can't date you all, so stop looking like idiots!

If you want to marry a Pommie bird, then put on a few pounds, grow a beard and learn to love TalkSport.

Since our last issue, we had several street parties in South London. The press may have dubbed these as 'riots', but this is the normal way we go shopping on a midweek evening in my locality. All dive shops were left untouched. It must be something to do with criminality and neoprene.

This issue sees a plethora of fantastic dive destinations; Dr Oli's getting down and dirty with your medical issues; and our gorgeous dentist is giving it out to the tooth fairy.

Don't forget the feedback form, you could win a place in Paradise for your thoughts on Tanked Up.
