    Default signs that your a scuba ADDICT...

    When you see a new cruise liner and think hmm that would look great 40m below the surface!!

    You walk past a fire extingisher and wonder if u could convert it to a tank and or hmm i should be diving!!

    You walk past a manky lake and still think hmm i wonder if it would be worth a dive!!

    It's cold, dark and generally a stay home n watch movies in front of the heater day (drysuit is out of action) and u still are trying to arrange a dive!!

    SO WHAT MAKES U KNOW YOUR AN ADDICT?

    I think you know you are an addict when you find yourself eating lunch while still wearing your dry suit in hopes that someone will want to dive again; all the while you keep telling everyone "IT ISN'T SNOWING UNDERWATER!".."COME ONNNNNN"

    You catch yourself exhailing when you want to go down the stairs.

    You stop to watch shows about sea life hoping to catch a glimps of divers just to see what they are using.

    You look forward to participating in a sport where pissing yourself is considered acceptable behavior.

    You wake up from a dream about diving JUST before you are about to "warm up" your suit.

    When you see a boat you think about the easiest way to get out of it with about 10lbs of lead in your pockets.
    Plan for the worst and something better always happens.

    Always exhale on the way up the stairs!

    - When you phone your dive shop, they instantly recognize your voice.

    - They automatically know to calculate the price into EC$ and not in US$

    - Oh and also, you hand them the correct money, before they've calculated it or ask you how much you paid before (well, maybe that's just me!)

    - And, coming on here, because you can't dive at the moment, but you're going cold turkey

    You have the DAN hotline on speed dial in your cell phone.

    When out of town overnight, on business, you pack your reg and BCD, just in case.

    You forget your Mum's birthday but know exactly when the lobster season opens in any given state and several other countries.

    You know by heart the NDL tables for air, 32% and 36% nitrox.

    You buy the best underwater housing you can find and then start saving the money to buy the camera to put in it.
