:) Cheers, chief!

Quiet night-in planned. Will be reading my new marine life book and studying the instructions for my new dive kit while I salivate over the thought of trying them out. ;)

A strobe (http://www.deepbluedive.com/product.aspx?id=10043) (beacon not camera light unfortunately) but still, I had great fun blinding the kids with it this morning (almost as good as last night's fireworks in Falkirk)! ;)

Also got twinning bands (http://www.simplyscuba.com/ProductDetails.aspx?StockID=7007) for my Buddy BCD so I can rig indie 12s (hope to use them to dive The Kintyre, Ding!).

Got this book (http://www.marinbi.com/eng/index.htm) which seems superb: fantastic photos from the brief look I had this morning.

Thinking of buying a dive computer with birthday cash if I get the green light to use top up funds from our domestic accountant (i.e. she who prevents me spending the kids' inheritance [the only type of skiing I get these days] on dive kit)! :eek:

As someone who spends my working life advising on how to mitigate inheritance tax, you can let your domestic accountant know that I absolutely recommend this form of tax planning.

When is my video camera arriving gg?

It will arrive when my Light cannon does.

I assume I will be allowed to use it when you don't need it as a video light.

Ah well! Better keep working on fixing the D8 and D4!

Thanks, guys :)

I complied with your advice, Claire. The kids can inherit that portion of the family fortune in the form of a new dive computer. It's for the best, really! ;)
