That is also Lucia and Alison's birthday, perhaps he has a deeperblue angel watching over him too :)

Best DB moment, bloody hell? Bgill's fins and associated story must be one of them.

Not a DB moment but my Ph.D graduation this summer was a high point :friday

Can you post the link?
 
Best DB moment, that’s a hard one but if I had to name them there would be two.
The first is the amount of good will and the response I got when I was in hospital with the old appendix job and the other would have to be the Guernsey holiday and the way those Guernsey boys opened there homes and showed us all around there beautiful island.
Here's to 2008 and another great year for one and all of the DB family. :friday
 
For me the best DB moment was April 11th. This was the date of the first contact for me with Sanso. He invited my wife and me to stay in his flat during our AIDA * / ** course in Lindau. This was the beginning of a friendship.

Since that time we dived a couple of times together and spent a unforgettable time in Dahab.
Cheers, Sanso and DB :friday
 
For me was definatly the double dip as I got to meet so many of db people in person and on a thread basis bgills fins. right up there with its a wonderful life.

April 11th is indeed a date to remember. For some a positive date, but if you look at what happened on that date as well; 2007 April 11 | Shark Freediving

By the way, maybe not completly my best DB memory but best freediving memories in general are listed here: Freediving Recap: The Year 2007 | Shark Freediving
 
Holiday Guernsey 2007 was highlight of the year without a doubt. I had not met anyone before I went and now I feel I have known them all my life! Great bunch of people and a brilliant time! Roll on Holiday Guernsey 2008!
 
I think my best moment was meeting Emma Farrell through Deeperblue, she is a true kindred spirit.

The continous daily comedy on DB and uniform humour has always been a brilliant way of distracting myself from work stress. :)

Another moment for me was earlier this year when I went through a massive personal upheaval and received lots of continued support from the guys here, particularly podge, pastor, marwan,spaniard and icarus pacific.

Ooh yes not mention meeting icarus pacific in person in Hawai!! Cor! rofl

Roll on 2008, may it bring us all happiness and peace.

Take the bus or a taxi tonight guys! A safe New Years party to all.

For excellent moments, I'd have to say bgill's thread. It was truly inspirational and reminded me that miracles happen and kind people are still out there. I needed to remember those things.

For my own part, the support from my DB family has been amazing in these past few months. Things have been very, very difficult, but you have been very kind to me. Thanks, guys. You're priceless :)

Just found deeper blue this year when i was lounging about with my first fracture ever! Threads on building guns, the safety tips and links, everyone tolerating my primitive communication skills. Now, when i get home in the evenings, i get to plug in for a bit - OK its an addiction now!
