Typhoon nexus drysuit
I bought my Typhoon nexus drysuit 6 years ago from new, and so far have used it on around110 dives in the UK in a wide variety of conditions from fresh water lakes in winter to off shore boat dives in the summer.
It comes in at the entry level price range for a membrain suit made from nylon trilaminate it is not that hard wearing compared to the more expensive suits and it will start to wear on the high friction parts such as inside leg and knee areas but this is easily fixed with a 2 pac adhesive such as Aquabond by Beaver.
The suit is rear entry via a large zip across the shoulders and must say that it has never proved to be a problem in fact it runs more easily then my other more expensive drysuits. It has a dump valve at the wrist which is simply raised above your head to expell unwanted air. The wrist ...
Advantages: Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Las Vegas Disadvantages: None
Ocean's Eleven
Brad Pitt, George Clooney and a whole host of other good looking guys planning the crime heist of the century, what more could you want from a movie! Ocean's Eleven is actually a 2001 remake of the 1960 Rat Pack caper film of the same name. I've never seen the original but I would like to so I can compare the two.
What's the ocean got to do with it? Is it set by the beach? No, Danny Ocean is the name of the game leader who collects together all his friends to rob three casinos in Las Vegas. And why eleven, why there are eleven people who carry out the crime. Danny has the perfect friends in order to carry out this job, one is a fixer, another a blackjack dealer, another a pickpocket, all worthy occupations to help you scam casinos out of $150 million!! Danny is played brilliantly by the gorgeous George Clooney. He is so ...
Advantages: Great cast Disadvantages: Not as good as the first film
Ocean's Twelve is the sequel to the 2001 smash hit Ocean's Eleven. It again stars George Clooney as Danny Ocean, who again has to bring his original team back together again when Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia) finds them all and demands his money back. The team now have the job of returning all of Benedict's money or face going to jail. But they may have a way out, in the shape of premier thief Francois Toulour, who will pay the entire amount if they can prove they are the best thieves in the world.
I love Ocean's Eleven, it's one of my favourite films, and I was disappointed when this failed to live up to my expectations. Perhaps I shouldn't have expected as much, sequels very rarely match the first films in terms of quality. I am glad they got the entire cast back together, using someone else wouldn't have worked as well, as ...
