He'd been expecting it to be black with pinpricks of light but he said it looked grey and there was far more light than he'd anticipated. He also said that whenever he did E.V.A. stuff he always had the strangest feeling of being watched.

    Forget being watched - it's when he gets tapped on the shoulder that he needs to worry.

    yeah definitely rock star, male equivalent of a "fluffer", astronaut, porn king, or anything that had a salary of over 1 million and required less than a few hours work a week. Theres few things I wouldn't do for that kind of money.

    How exactly do these thread revivals happen..?

    I mean surely if you're a new poster here it's probably going to be a tech issue rather than a general discussion one.. and how exactly would you find a thread on dream jobs to bump?

    Actually, my dad owns some land in Koh Samui so I could open a dive shack/bar/brothel there. I have nearly enough dive equipment, so all I would need would be some booze, some birds and the extra kit.
