"Good onya Tony - Explaining various types of Commercial Diving to novices & client's has always been a huge learning curve. Always liked a success story mate. Give 'er."

Thanks for that mate. I made it just for my family really but it does explain the basics to the confused. I've got some more coming soon I hope. Watch this space.

Thanks a lot my man. Good luck with the commercial work. There are a lot worse jobs out there. I'm fifty now and have never done a days work in an office, I've always been on-in-or under-the sea. And, to top it all, generally, divers…"
Joe Tufano replied to Tony Groom's discussion The Book DIVER. By Tony Groom"Hey,
I'm a 17 year old diver just about to get into the commercial diving world. I got your book for Christmas last year and I have to say it's really great =) It's really awesome to hear about someone's point of view and what…"
Tony Groom replied to Tony Groom's discussion The Book DIVER. By Tony Groom"The Admiral was a failed diver you see. How many do you meet throughout life? How his life could have been sooo different. He could've been scrambling about in the dark depths of Portsmouth dockyard, or lost on some massive Plem. Instead, he…"

Have you tried Amazon.com? They seem to send it anywhere. If not, I could send it if you have a secure post box.

If you're serious. Have a look on my site. I can sign, or write anything you want in them. The other day I did one for a sports diver. It was a Dad to his son, I had to put:
Son ... There are two types of diver in this world.... And…"

That is a good idea. You know what most companies are like though, tight as ****.
It was suggested that I write it on bog paper, with the perforations along the spine. Then, when sat on the throne, as you finish a page, you simply, swipe and…"

I wrote a peice to go on the inside cover, it went something like:
On no account should you lend this book to another diver.
He will either lose it, break it, deny ever having it or use it as a hammer!
She wouldn't let me put it in. I…"
stuart anderson replied to Tony Groom's discussion The Book DIVER. By Tony Groom"You should specialise, mate. Instead of a big print run, get a couple of dozen copies made Bell-proof, and sell them to the DSV's for a grand apiece.
