So in the first part of this trip I wrote about getting to Pom Pom, our experience there, the food, the resort and so on. But obviously we went there for diving! So how was SCUBA diving at Pom Pom island? I didn’t have the best start, gearing up for the first dive..my BCD back […]

Visiting Celebes Beach Resort at Pom Pom Island, Sabah – Malaysia
So we found out about this place called Pom Pom Island last year at MIDE (Malaysian International Dive Expo), I’d honestly never heard of it before and couldn’t even point to a region on the map where I thought it might be. It turns out, it’s in Sabah, about 30 mins boat road from Semporna, […]
Pom Pom Island – Sabah, Malaysia
What an amazing place! Pretty sure I’ll write about this trip (for once) because I had such a GOOD time! Truly a paradise, crystal clear turquoise waters, amazing diving, great company, breathtaking sunsets – brilliant! More soon.

(videos here). The second time was Tiesto & Cosmic Gate LIVE at Freedom 08 – Port Dickson, Malaysia – also […]
In Langkawi – Heading To Koh Lipe

Finally Back To Scuba Diving – Pulau Lang Tengah
Man it’s been a long, long, long, long, long, LONG time since I’ve gotten to use this SCUBA Diving category tag! In fact there’s only a measly 3 posts in there, this will be the 4th. I started diving way back in 2004 and ended soon thereafter in 2005 – not so much by choice […]
Happy 2nd Birthday To BFM Radio – Bloody Fantastic Music!
If there was one thing I really missed from the UK it was the quality of radio broadcasts, yah we have shitty format radio in UK too (Capital, Virgin etc) but we have the pure win that is BBC Radio 1 – that was pretty much the only station I listened to. They had awesome […]
