    None of mine have shrunk over the last 25-30 years, they both still fit, sort of. Did you wash yours in water that was too hot?

    Anyone got a good tip on how to get rid of the cavity below the bottom of the ribcage and the hips. Damn thing just fills with cold water.

    Q: What did Sir Peter Plumley Walker say to himself as he went over the falls in the barrel?
    A: Shit, I hope I don't have to pay for this one.

    Might be worth a go, but I'll need to get two. One to add weights to, the other to tighten the middle. Don't have any as they were bought for surface stuff (Yak and swimming). Found a clip of the first owner of the swimming one too. 1987 Cadbury Moro Bar New Zealand TV Ad - Rick Wells - YouTube

    As for the rest of you lots suggestions, ....

    Put a kidney belt on under it and it fills the gap up nice.
