LDC - Dive lecture 31 Jan - Monty's out...

[sailorbuoy]

This just in from LDC:

Unfortunately Monty Halls will no longer be able to speak at the event due to filming schedules. However, in his place we have Richard Peirce who will be talking about "Working with BRITISH PREDATORY SHARKS"

Richard Peirce has always been fascinated by sharks and is a passionate shark conservationist (Chairman of the Shark Trust). His passion has not only taken him around the world but also into our own British waters where he has not only studied these amazing creatures but is also working to create a viable shark eco-tourism down in Cornwall.

Should I still make the trip to the smoke?

Is that Monty's out as in he's finally burst out of a cake in a pink fur bikini singing "I Am What I Am"?

Don't be silly. He is off filming some manly diving somewhere. Probably with some dangerous predator... none of this mamby pamby cave stuff

I expect, though, that their 'long waiting list' will shrink as people decide that Richard Peirce isn't as an attractive proposition as an evening with Monty. Much as I like Richard - and he will be an excellent speaker - he doesn't quite have the same magnetism (AKA phworrrrrr ability) as Monty

(Sorry... I am beginning to sound like a groupie )

Obviously, I missed out on tickets but I've had an email today offering me the 3 places I originally applied for. Sadly it's too late notice for me so I won't be going.

I heard yesterday that Mike Valentine isn't attending. Has anyone else heard this ?
No Monty , no Mike , only Richard Peirce ?
