Stone Fish

On my 90th odd dive I eventually saw one of these buggers. Up to this point I was beginning to believe there was a conspiracy amongst the dive world to make me believe that such things actually existed. This chap was pointed out to me by FOTW's wine correspondant (no reviews so far then John? Perhaps your pallete has yet to recover from the beatig it took with the Obileisk) on Yolanda Reef in Ras Mohamed National Park. Thanks, otherwise I would have probably sailed on by oblivious yet again.

Glass Fishes

In the interest of increasing fish throughput on FOTW this snap has been carefully selected by the editorial board. Shame about the videographer who mysteriously appeared from no where to spoil the overall effect.

Dory Snappers

These chaps were sptted recently swimming near to the Dunraven wreck. Commonly mistaken for the One Spot Sanppers, who also bear the distinctive black mark just below the rear section of the dorsal fin, but unlike the Dory rarely hang out in groups.

Forsters Hawkfish

This chap was either on the look out for a passing fish for lunch or maybe I posed a threat to his harem. Whatever, I got the eye.

Tobago Showcase - Hawksbill Turtle

Our final Tobago showcase offering, once again care of FOTW friends Katy and Gareth, is one of our old favourite the Hawksbill turtle. This one was caught whilst apparently have a quiet shit on a beautiful coral garden.

Tobago Showcase - Squirrel Fish

The third photograph in our tobago showcase is of a squirrel fish. His large eye suggests he is usually found out at night time and I bet he is a bit pissed off that some diver has stuck a camera and flash in his face. Nice photograph though. Thanks to our intrepid Cornwall FOTW branch for the Tobago snaps.

FOTW wine correspondant pulls own head off

Having been offered a glass of top Egyptian wine, John, FOTW's recently appointed wine correspondant was reported as saying "I would rather pull off my own head than drink Oboleisk". FOTW can now exclusively reveal that attempts were made to carry out the head removing threat in Abu el Sid restaurant in Sharm. Fortunately for fellow diners the blood splatter was not extensive.
