There was some great diving, especially the Remus and ferritting around in the Dresden.

Needless to say I'm really looking forwards to going back up next month for the Wrecking the Northern Isles trip.


The journey home was a bit of a nightmare - the exhaust let go just South of Inverness and so a call was made to the RAC.

The mechanic came out and took one look at the exhaust and decided that it could not be fixed at the side of the road. It also turned out that Scotland is closed on Saturday afternoon so no garage To top it all off, due to the weight of the dive kit the tow truck could not lift the car!!!

Somewhat later another truck came out and the car was loaded onto that. We headed down to Carlisle, dropping Andy off at Abinton, and transfered to another truck. Driving hours and a restriction of 56mph ment that this was going to be a long journey.

The second truck took me as far as Stafford services - where the recovery guy forgot to tell the next man in the chain that he had dropped me off. So a call to the RAC and 1 1/2 hr later I get picked up and taken to the depot in Birmingham for the final transfer to be taken down to Warminster.

I got home at 07:30 Sunday morning.
Oh no! So sorry to hear that Paul

However, at least it was on the return and you weren't stuck struggling to get up there
