You are a poor liar Simon..... however the fact that even without expanding the truth any, you probably had more viz on the Sub than we did on the surface made your story even more plausible.

Entering the water, Mark gallantly volunteered for SMB duty, and soon we were exploring the boulders, nooks and crannies and ledges in a gentle drift. Again a good 5m+ of vis, plenty of light and fish everywhere
Really enjoyed this dive, particularly after the personal disaster of the first dive. As Simon said it was an excellent dive, loads of life, actually enjoyed doing the SMB duty aswell.
Enjoy diving with Simon, he is an excellent spotter!!

- a real shame about Gizmo not making the M2, but the right choice made there......- and only a few weeks until my next YD meet down in Porthkerris
There will be other opportunities to get back to have a look at Sidon and M2, I am sure of it. Regs going in tomorrow to have a look, pretty sure the piston ring has gone

Really looking forward to Porthkerris aswell, bring on the sharks.
