Ring tanks !

Lyn Edwards <gedwards@man.ac.uk>





Big day last Sunday, read the Times and went to Stoney. Did anyone else
see the article about "ring tanks" - oooh er missis ! Smaller, lighter,
composite structure and wacky ring shaped with the pillar valve inside
the ring for protection. Photo shows a small back-pack type cylinder in
the small of the back - size/volume/pressure unspecified. HSE are being
given some to test so I must tap into my source at Buxton - 'nuf said !
"Int Stoney brilliant - it's like big and wet with stuff in" - well it
was on Sunday. Not often you can turn up at 10.30 and park anywhere you
want at the water's edge. Viz was excellent, hardly a diver to bump into
(honest !) but it was a midge on the fresh side and the white horses a
bit of a pain. Grand day out for the first dive of 98
