Poor you. Are you a criminal being punished?

Proper diving! Good choice.

Oh well, nobody is perfect?

I wouldn't necessarily call myself a tropical diver, but relative to you guys, I probably am! I'm accustomed to diving in temperatures around 17-23C
I don't have my bath water that hot.

I'm guessing that day and weekend trips to the south coast are the easiest way to get wet? I've only briefly heard of some diving in Brighton, but will have to read up on these forums to see what other dive sites are easily accessible from London. I have an interest in wrecks too, and have heard that a lot of wrecks on the south coast are at a relatively shallow depth.
There are some from 25 mtrs (a few) right down to 60 mtrs. Eastbourne, Newhaven, Brighton and Dover ............. to name a few places for dive charters.

Why don't you pop along to Wraysbury (J13 M25 / right by Wraysbury train station) some time. I am there most weekends.

It may be a good idea to dive inland and get sorted with drysuit training before heading down the coast.

I am organising a lot of sea trips that would be suitable for you this summer if you are interested?

Hi Ev, welcome. I loved diving around Sydney and I think you might have been a bit spoilt! However, in the summer, when it's warmed up a bit, some of the south coast diving can equal diving in Oz for nice critters and we have some great wrecks.

Keep your eyes peeled for trips and add youself to the list if there is anything you fancy.

yeah - those few odd characters will be 'Finless'. We make no apologies for him - he is just.. just.. Finless I guess.
