Is it worth me taking the camera then?

(No strobe)

How busy was it there today (and is the car park underwater - not sure about there but pissing down all day here 25 miles away)

Depends on what you want to take pictures of!!

I am taking mine tomorrow to get some in the deeper sections.

Son, you're going to have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming aircrew. You can't do both.

The aircraft limits are only there in case there is another flight by that particular aircraft. If subsequent flights do not appear likely, there are no limits.

I may hit 30m or so (!) so suspect i'll be in the crap vis section.
With others from my club who think the world implodes at 31m unfortunately.

Then again im still playing "guess the weighting" with the subxero so not going too deep is sensible especially as im in a constant war between me and my auto dump.

It was a good day. Nice to meet up with NickB, G-man, Wayne, Dive Buddha, James, Paul and whole host of others.

Vis varied from around 2-3m where people had kicked the proverbial out of the bottom near the Devon aircraft, to around 10-15m at 48m.

However, I did find something which I wasn't too chuffed about and I am going to make a post about it shortly, once I have the images uploaded. If it was a joke, then fine. If not, I would like to know what I have done to deserve this!

Im assuming you were the one with GLOC on the tins and on the undersuit ?

Got kitted up right next to the 3 of you in the afternoon and were one of the last to leave (parked next to us).


Vis varied from perfectly acceptable 5-8m or so to 1-3m where people had kicked it up. Could tell you were nearing an attraction as a wall of hanging silt appeared in front.

Not sure what it was but something that looked like larvae/eggs/spawn of some sort in the first 3-4m of water.

Ah, I recognise where you were parked. James was in the BMW next to you, and NickB was in the A4 next to that and me.

I had my YD name on but you didn't come and say hi! Maybe next time then.
