I had a good day too - probably my best sea dive of the year so far
MJH had laid on some cracking weather - blue skies, sunshine & a notably slight sea state - but this had evidently distracted her from such things as remembering gas
the skipper had obviously agreed with my choice of wreck & we headed off eastward to the TR Thomson
Paul & I were first in, with much heckling of our very moderate 73 litres of gas, & down the line with a little tide still running, to the welcome sight of a large rusty thing, 2-3m of viz & just enough darkness to make the torches work nicely. a very pleasant 40mins on a 28-33m bottom, past the boilers & up to the - I think - pointy end, & a nice conservative ascent for a 68min runtime, & last back on the boat
back on the boat for tea, golden syrup cake & a chat whilst we cruised back to the mythical 'Ledges' for a drft
mythical in that I've never seen the buggers. after 15mins of sand the wetnotes came out for a game of O's & X's, Paul must have been narc'd, as he left an obvious row for my truimphant victory. once back on the boat, he very unsportingly suggested that I had cheated
all in all a most enjoyable day, good weather, a cracking wreck & a good bunch on the boat. many thanks to Marieanne for organizing it
