My O3 dry suit.
 

COOLEST THING SEEN U/W

My O3 dry suit, okay the seahorse in Gozo, the mantas and humpback in Costa Rica, words are not enough!

NON-CELEB MOMENT

When we dived in Portland the guy from Time Team was on our rib, I sold Sharon Davies a wet suit, and all the other stories from London could implicate myself in a law suit so I better not!

WOULD NEVER DIVE

Any puddle, I'll jump, once.

BBS (BEST BACON SARNIE)

Devils Point, Plymouth, the local burger van, Saturday morning after a dip in the shipping channel... lovely.
Ralf Tech
 

BEST BUDDY

Alice for her love of everything underwater and Jules for her playfulness and Jess for being my buddy through our IDC.

WORST BUDDY

So many faces, so little time.

LIFE CHANGING BIZARRE DIVE MOMENT

Playing the 'pick up the matchbox with no hands' in the Royal Breakwater, Portland...
 

WORST CAR PARK EVER CHANGED IN

...it's close, a toss up between Wraysbury in November, pouring with rain or Stoney in February in the snow !!!

FAVOURITE UK DIVE LOCATION

Plymouth, all of it, but Oban was pretty special too.

FAVOURITE OVERSEAS DIVE LOCATION

Mmmm... Thailand/Costa Rica /Gozo... no particular order.

STILL WANNA DIVE...

Indonesia, Cape Verde, New Zealand, South Africa.

AIR OR NITROX

Fat air... over rated.

TANYA STREETER OR MIRANDA KRESTOVNIKOFF

Streeter, can't beat the silver wet suit.

MONTY HALLS OR NICK BAKER

Halls, remember his Belize Blue Hole dive, off his chops!!!
