anyway its so different in the sea compared to the lakes, obviously, seeing the wreck was so cool even though i didn't really recognise what was what i was looking at! we saw plenty of fish and several star fish. it was weird thinking to myself 'I'm at the bottom of the English Channel' lol
I really can't wait to get back out there.. I'm not really sure about going out on a rib yet... we were kinda spoiled on the hard boat with having a lift to get us out the water as well as a lovely hot cuppa and sausage rolls as soon as we de-kitted  |
Great to hear you had a good dive, Neptune is a great boat to dive from and Brazen is a great wreck. Hopefully fingers crossed with the weather we should be out on it next weekend. I quite enjoy diving from the RIB...but must admit I do prefer the hardboat.
