Unless you intend going deeper than 18 metres then you really don't need a wetsuit, T-shirts are fine

Yeah I'm up for it, though with some trepidation. I'm not exactly a swimmer but I should be able to do the controlled sinking thing...

Why not go to Kish though? I hear it's awesome over there, it will make it a holiday and when people ask where you learnt to dive you can say 'Iran'!

Maybe one more victim.
CeeCee seemed keen when it was pointed out that the tightness of the wetsuit would emphasise her assets!

anyone else??
