I'd just like to add (having been there twice now) what a shit place this is.. for me it is an hours drive for shit viz, comedic depth and staff who have no idea of what customer service is about. I do however go for the social side..

How do I put this, if you dont like the service, vis, depth ect, don't go.

I have used Wraysbury for the last 8 years and never had a problem with any member of the staff, also it is a training lake, not the red sea, you know how deep the lake is dont expect depth, you know the viz in a London lake is sh1t so don't expect viz. Just don't go.

Nice to meet you the other night Ricky.

The viz the first time I went there was around 10m and I thought, wow! this can't be the Wraysbury I have heard of. Last night was the Wraysbury I had heard of.

Depth, yep, I am happy with the depth I can get at Wraysbury, if only to do drills in midwater.

However, staff service is something that needs to be improved by some of the staff.

Wilbo.
Sorry for the rant.
I have always enjoyed Wraysbury and seem to get on fine with the staff, but everyone is entitled to an opinion.

Sean
Yep 8 years and still training.

Gloc
The vis was fine (3-6m) at 3pm, I think I destroyed it but that's training.

Aw the best
Ricky

No probs.. thanks for the D timer btw.. still using it..

3-6 metres would have been lovely - but I had to tell GLOC to "f*ck off backwards - just a little bit" during out shutdown drills as at a metre's distance he and Richy couldn't see what I was doing to my valves..

Customer Service?
Its a London Pub with a pond you can dive in in the garden, AND get a fill and you want customer service?
