Conch, to whom are you addressing your comment?
I am not questioning if Victor is retired, it is the rest of the statement Bowson is making (all the way from Labrador?).
If it's valid, it's valid. But if it's based on nothing more than rumour then I suggest such statements should be kept private, not public.
I do not see why some people delight in attacking others, and when it is based on factless information, even moreso.
If you want to attack Victor in regards to something that relates to diving, let's hear it. If you can find fault in his technique, teaching, or safety record then vent away. If you are attempting to slander his wife Suzanne then that is a different matter.
