Northern Diver Cortex

Advantages: Easy to read and understand, good reviews on dive kit. Can get an idea of how much items can cost
Disadvantages: Makes you wish you were diving!

...I am a big fan of scuba diving and subscribe to the magazine 'Diver' which is obviously all about scuba diving. Why I First Bought " DIVER" Magazine. I started buying "DIVER " magazine about 3 years ago when I started to learn to scuba dive in India where I completed my Open water Dive course. I chose it because it looked easy to read as I am not a very big reader! It is more expensive than other magazines but it is a specialist magazine and they always tend to be more expensive. Availability. I first used to buy it in WHSMITH but it could be difficult to get if they had sold out as it is only available at big newsagents so I now subscribe to " DIVER " and get it delivered to me. It is a monthly magazine and the current price per issue is £3.80 but works out far cheaper if you subscribe. A years subscription is £26... Read review

...As is reasonably clear from my user name I like scuba diving, and as with many divers I obtain alot of inofrmation on the sport through reading dive publications of which there are three main ones avaliable in the UK. this is possibly the best, it isn't affiliated to any of the diver training organisations, but each has its merits and I subscribe to all three.

The covers are usually brightly coloured and I have to say tempt me back in to the water as its almost always clear and with gorgeous bright fish. Ok back to the real world now where the magazine is just a picture and I am not underwater! The features tend to include travel both UK dive sites (cornwall;coast to coast) and abroad (Bali Beasts), information on improving dive technique (Deco Plans), equipment... Read review

...I love Manchester, and used to go quite regularly. Unfortunately money is tight so I don't get as many nights out down there as I used. When I do get down, I like to make the most of it. Last time I was in Manchester, we stayed at The Northern Quarter Apartments. The Northern Quarter The Northern Quarter of Manchester consists of High Street and the 'original Northern Quarter' on Oldham Street, which is slightly North of the Arndale Centre and Piccadilly Gardens in the centre of Manchester. There are loads of funky little boutique shops, which are amazing for vintage clothes. There are plenty of coffee shops ( the one next to Pop is quite relaxed and cool) and small sandwiches shops and eateries. The nightlife in the Northern Quarter includes bars like Dry Bar which used to be owned by New Order, the "modern burlesque" club Mint... Read review
