Cheap Lidl watersports kit

Checkout this lot;

Lidl offers

The cameras are single use not with rpelacable 35mm, however they probably take better pictures thatn Codder's Image stabilised Leica neutron positron micro-telescope - I wish! How are you today Codders?

They are doing some 3 ton jacks from thursday and ratchet straps, current cheap but ok ones came from Ikea.

Correction

The Cameras are re-usable just not guranteed waterproof, but the housing looks ok for spalshproof.

Obviously every RIB should have one.

Thanks for that Simon
Bought 2 pairs of wetsuit boots and 1 of those 'underwater strobe lights' its very bright even in daytime and may be a useful safety addition.

Just what I thought lash it to the A frame after all the flares are gone!

Seems like a lot of people in my dive club went to Lidl for some retail therapy!

Hannah,

They are reusable they just dont gurantee them as waterproof dow to 12 metres or whatever. Some of club used them last year in the Red Sea and they managed about 4 films, not sure what depth they took them too knowing that lot far to much!

The 5 metre single use ones have been known to work at 50 metres, quite impressive!

Ahh the things I miss not watching TV!!!

I used to like various progs but the utter crap they put on these days - just what we need a licence fee for!!! It is great to know where the BILLIONS get spent!!!

About the ONLY good thing on these days is Dr Who - too think that scumbag Michale Grade deliberately turned it into a laughing stock too kill it off - despite the fact it was so popular - the new one just proves it - gets more viewers than the soaps!!!

Whatever happened to all the good stuff - fawlty towers - blackadder - all classic stuff!!!

My particular favourite in recent times was 'The Office' with Ricky Gervais - absolutely superb. Agree about most of the rest of it being utter drivel.

Bet ya someone's doing them on eBay, anyone seen "House" Hugh Laurie makes a cracking off the wall doc. It'll be another Six feet Under instant classic.

The nwe have the utter dross; Big Brother(Udders) - Codders dont buy a TV in a hurry.
