I know its a fair way in advance but start thinking about what you'd like to dive, with whom (i know some of u are already in teams and buddy pairs) and if your wanting mixed gas so H&H know in advance.

I've only dived the flow for a weekend and on the way out on the North Isles trip last year so I'm very keen to enjoy just diving the flow this trip.
As per the above, down to 40-45m max, diving twins, wanting nitrox and some rich deco gas but not trimix.
I am perfectly happy to go along with Hazel and Helen's recommendations as I have complete faith in them and they haven't "bum-steered" yet
I'll be diving with Weazelz and Hebails and I'm looking forward to meeting all of those I haven't met before and creating some new memories to PMSL at Which reminds me ............ stock up on the Tenas BB

So ....... what ferry is everyone getting ?

Weazelz, Hebails and I will be travelling up Friday but cannot arrive soon enough for the Sat daytime ferry and will be coming over, from Stromness, on the 19:00.
