    Greetings

    Originally from Wath, been a supporter since '74 when I went to my first game away at Crewe... we won :)
    Traveled all over the world since then so don't get to may games and haven't since around '84. Follow the games every week and now thanks to iFollow I get to watch them regularly as well.
    Currently teaching tourists to Scuba Dive in Cyprus :cool:

    Cheers
    Scuba

    Absolutely belting it down in donny too.

    In fact you could scuba dive on the roads.

    Welcome to you scuba, don't worry you'll get to a game in a couple of years when we have a champions league qualifier against APOEL or Larnaca...

    Well done, Scoobs. You are living the dream. And isn't this live video of the matches amazing? The first match I saw streamed from Oakwell, I watched me good old buddy from fotty years ago tamping down the grass and treading divots down on the pitch. I was in the arid middle of West Aust, he was on the pitch at Oakwell and I watched him live (well, he wasn't moving very fast).

    Very warm welcome Scuba. One of my former workmates is from Cyprus.
    A grand lass. Only thing wrong with her is she supports Huddersfield Town.!
    Look forward to hearing your opinions. What do you think from what you've
    seen so far.?

    You'll be able to take a few of our pond life supporters scuba diving in the Dearne without snorkels. They'll like that.

    Not a bad place to work I suppose, but don't you miss the changing seasons? My other half has had ideas about going to live in Spain for the last few years but I would hate that wall to wall sunshine, day after day. I might risk it for a while - see if I could acclimatise - but it would be a big decision and I'm not sure I'm ready yet. I only saw Cyprus briefly during my RAF days - Akrotiri - but I'm sure the island has its attractions. You obviously think so!

    Hello mate, I lived in Cyprus for 3 years between 1999 & 2002, loved every second of it.

    A mate of mine has just come out of the RAF and set-up a Scuba Diving business in Cyprus
