Advantages: Darius himself, lots of songs and styles Disadvantages: Extra feature doesnt work
As you may be able to tell, I am a mad Darius fan. I know many people only remember him as the cheesy, Britney impersonating runner-up from Pop Idol.
But if you look and listen closely you'll soon see he's the boy next door, Charming, handsome and with a good voice.
Vowing he would return and with a No.1 single and a triple platinum selling album by the time he was 35 years old, he achieved both easily with the release of 'DiveIn'.

Advantages: Warm water, clear, lots of life Disadvantages: Some dives not that exciting
I recently did a dive trip to the Maldives, not a destination I would have planned on as I've always thought of it as a honeymoon destination.

The weather was generally very warm, and fairly humid.
Some of the dives were phenomenal. The highlight was the dive at Manta Point (though it's best to point out that there isn't just one but several manta points around the Maldives, partly according to season).
