Chuffed as punch! But I wrote it in past tense and they changed it all to present tense, do they do this often? I could have done it if they had have asked

Nice one Paul!

Congrats, nice job.

Paul,

They do this for descriptive pieces because it is thought to give them more immediacy.

Every mag has its own editorial style. When I used to write for Tauchen (Germany), I'm sure they threw away my words and wrote them totally afresh whereas DYK in Scandinavia prints exactly what I write - but translated into Swedish or Danish.

JB

Thanks for that John, and the rest of you

Well done Paul

It happens all the time mate, I used to present a few of TV progs in the 80's and 90's but they changed my name and digitally changed my face to some bloke called Attenborough??? Oh well keep plodding on...

Nice one

Dive safe

Well done fella.

Stew

Cheers Dean, ands Stew - I wish I was there as long as you were, I had loads of problems with my housing, not as many opportunities to get loads of absolute crackers like you did, ok then one or two maybe!

Good work fella!

cheers Will

Anyone actually read it? Not heard anyones opinions yet

Nice one Paul, the double page tiger is awesome.

If you haven't already, email George Lanham [george@divermag.co.uk] and ask him to send you the layout as a PDF.

Good to have for your archives.

Really enjoyed the read as well.
