    No, we've had no problems when diving this is happening days after we have dived, when just using the Mosquito as a watch.

    Suunto Mosquito - Battery problems?

    I bought my wife a Suunto Mosquito back in February and we've been using it on and off frequently with about 80 dives on it in the past six months. However, three time in the past 3 months, (twice in the last month) it has reset itself. It remembers all the dives, but the date and time is...

    Probably a silly question Drew, but how are things on the East End? Is Tortuga/The Reef still standing?

    Equipment shipping - KL Malaysia

    Thanks to some SB users we were warned about having our dive gear shipped to Thailand for diving in Phuket. Thai Customs, we were told impound the gear and demand import tax based on the cost of the equipment. (grrr!) My question is: does anyone know if this is the case for Malaysia too? I...

    Redang...

    My wife and I have just finished two great weeks diving Redang, Lang Tengah and the Perhentians and I was planning to post something about Redang when I spotted this thread. We spent five days diving, staying at (although not diving through) the Laguna Redang Island Resort. The resort is the...

    Nassua cruise ship schedule

    I was there for 9 days in early June. Nassau is minging with cruise ships. Bank on at least one being in everyday (sometimes 4), except for Sunday (when we were there), I appreciate that's probably not what you want to hear...

    Tips for all going to Egypt

    I also applied what we joked as "The Rule of Thirds". By that expect one out of three of anything and everything you order to be wrong or just never show up. We found the rule was consistent across nice restaurants as well as beachside huts.

    Bazaruto? Pemba? Maldives? Mauritius?

    My wife an I learned to dive in Mauritius back in 2002. The island is very dependent on weather. Jun - Sep is a very changable time and the island gets a lot of storms. It rained constantly for two weeks (except for two days) when we were there in early July. Diving aside for the moment...

    Sharm el Sheikh for beginners?

    Be prepared though! You would have been spoilt in Coz - I loved it there and Sharm is totally different. The boats are pretty much all cattle boats, so get prepared to dive with 30 other souls and then meet another 30 underwater certainly on the high-profile sights. Sharm wasn't in the same...

    No one told me Key Largo was so damn good!

    I have been away from the ol´ internet for a while so I haven´t had chance to post my sheer bloody enjoyment of Key Largo diving. Two weeks ago, my wife and I thought we´d head down to the keys as we had some spare time. OK, my home is in the UK so, "popping down for dive" isn´t in my vocab...

    Which dive shop in Nassau?

    Yep, gotta go with Dive Dive Dive. My wife and I did 8 dives with them last week, and although I thought they were on their last legs (dive shop is a little absent) they were a great dive team. We never had more than 6 divers on a boat, which is very important to me after diving the...

    Bahamas - Nassau

    My wife and I are flying into Nassau as part of an around-the-world stop-off at the beginning of June. From the searches that I have done it seems that Grand Bahama has some dodgy diving, and after being totally unimpressed by Sharm when I was there back in November, I´m keen to avoid crappy...

    A little word of warning re Insurance

    Sadly a similar thing happened to my with the afore mentioned insurer - I suppose I should have read the exclusion for thoroughly, however that doesn't help when you're minus one set of golf clubs and the lovely people on the telephone say here's £500 - somewhat short of the mark...

    London International Dive Show

    I went to LIDS about this time last year - great show! I spent a small fortune but got some excellent deals. It worked out at the sameprice as the best deal I had found on the internet, with the added security of buying from a proper supplier, who could offer a serious warranty. Enjoy the...

    okidoki

    Hmm not sure about north-west specifically, but you could try London Scuba (www.londonscuba.com) or London School of Diving (www.londonschoolofdiving.com) to see if they fit your bill.
