    Hey Groupie59, firstly welcome to the boards.
    Being a newbie to diving, I have never come across the term of 'sat' diver before, but now after going to the link, I now know!
    The singing was hilarious! Many thanks for posting up the link!

    I wonder what Tom Jones would make of it?
    Saturation. Not the most fun diving in the world because it's always working. I've done years of it, literally. As part of writing the book, I got out my log books and worked out the hours in chambers and in the water. It was something like 2 and a half years in the chambers and 6 and half months actually on the bottom, I mean wet!

    That didn't include all air, mixed gas and tech diving that I'd done. It sort of depressed me a bit.

    Good clip though wasn't it?

    Brilliant, absolutely histerical!

    As an ex-pat Brit, I miss some of the humour and this was just perfect! I'll look out for the CD to be released!

    Thanks for posting it and welcome aboard.

    Thanks for the welcome. You won't get any sympathy on the ex-pat bit. Not when it's freezing and blowing a hoolie here, and your 'Stuck in Dallas!'

    I'm only jealous. Better get back to writing the book, it takes my mind off the weather.

    Can't argue with you there.

    Some things I miss about the UK:
    Beer
    Pubs
    Humour
    obviously, friends and family (have to say that, in case they read this )

    Things I don't miss:
    Weather
    Cost of living
    Weather
    Traffic (used to live in London!)
    Weather

    Cheers

    That sounds about right and totally agree.
    It would be nice to experience snow - just when its been newly laid and it's not turned to slush, but can't see that happening over here
