Cannot agree more. First thing I ever bought on-line was a Proclaimers CD, I'm still waiting for it three years on, then a black silk Italian designed shirt, when it arrived it would have fitted a 10 year old and I sell better quality dishcloths. Then got bitten again ordering a pair pf 'classic Levi 501 jeans' . When they arrived they were made in Indonessia, paper thin and I've worn better quality jeans for gardening. They were ****e. So I got conned again ordering two pair of 'classic hand made in Northampton brogues' from an ad on facebook. Turned out they were from China and they never arrived at all. On-line my arse, its a conmans paradise.
You look like you’re off to do maintenance on a North Sea Rig rather than going diving in Lanzarote. good colour choice mind.
It is only orange when you see it on the surface, as I wear in under water, it might appear to be amber between 15 and 20 metres. At 40 metres it will look grey. Red is the first colour to be lost out of the spectrum and that is why dive gear safety gear tends to be yellow.
I dive in the English Channel all year round and next weekend will be in a quarry in Somerset, testing the suit there.
Did you ever have any dodgy moments whilst diving? I've had a few near death experiences in my time, but the closest was snorkeling in Crete. Got caught in a rip. If I hadn't have had snorkel and flippers I definitely wouldn't have been posting this, really frightening
I have had enough "dodgy" moments to understand that the rescue services spot someone in the water wearing orange better than black!
