About 2000/1 JJ, poor Ted was killed in a terrorist bomb attack on the Ghazala Gardens hotel,Sharm el Sheikh in 2005,a great diving buddy for over 10 years sadly missed.

Yes, I do remember you mentioning about poor Ted. That was a very sad and a great loss to his family and friends. Tragic how the innocent have to suffer so often in all this mayhem.

Yes agree Mike although Ted thats what I called him, he was a Muslim and a Egyptian and one of the nicest guys you could ever meet.And when we was both underwater we had a wonderful rapport.Somehow we always new what each other was thinking,he was great holding my lights.And new what I was going to do sometimes before I knew myself.A great diver and buddy and a true real friend,and sadly missed.

Yes Bruce it will,I some times wonder how anyone can purposely and deliberately kill fellow man.Unless of course your own life was threatened,or to protect family or yourself.That sign on the bottom of full length mirror in the parrot house London zoo.States you are now looking at the most dangerous animal in the world,sad but how very true.
