Hi Adrian,
Hi there, I haven't been on here for months so sorry for the delay but here are some pics I reckoned may bring a nostalgic tear to rheumy old sea dog eyes. Please show them to the offending parties with my best wishes!
I believe this was taken at Exmouth or Teignmouth in about spring '89/90.
From left to right - Tim Cashman, Phil Dale, Chris Giles, ?, ?
The club used to have 3 x 15' Zodiacs, each with a 40 horse Mariner, this is Z3.
I can't remember what the things are called that they are wearing round their necks and god only knows what they were for.
And what has Phil Dale got on his body?
Actually that is a mighty fine example of a Napoleonic-era limpet-mine-removal frogman's outfit bought for 2 guineas from Woods of Crediton. Wonder if they are still going strong?
