    A thermos full of hot water poured into your suit makes getting into the cold water down here a bit more enjoyable

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Enjoy.

    PS Twoshot - how's your new suit going?
    Plastic bag rules.. espeacially when getting back into a wetsuit. done it hundreds of times..

    Hot water bottle filled with warm water helps on cold days. Never hang your wetsuit in the sun, ultra violet rays are aggressive to the rubber. As soon as you are out of the water take it off as the wetsuit will pull moisture out of your skin and it can dehydrate you. Kills your suntan as well (wetsuit whiteness)

    Anyone got a good tip on how to get rid of the cavity below the bottom of the ribcage and the hips. Damn thing just fills with cold water.
    Put a kidney belt on under it and it fills the gap up nice.
