Hi Guys,

As Holly will have by now told you, your Mixed Bag trip is is now classed as 'Leg 2' of next year's The Full Circle Britain Expedition


For anyone wanting to join later legs (Isle of Man, Rathlin Island, Scapa Flow Oban etc.) you can see details of this year's trip here:

www.fullcirclebritain.co.uk

We'll be posting more on the full itinerary for the Full Circle Britain Expedition on the boards shortly. There'll be a big splash in the dive and industry mags next year, so those YD'ers attending any leg of the tour might end up as media stars as the magazine articles and web-blogs covering the event emerge....

This means the place is avaialable to anyone else.

Just out of curiosity, what was the reason for cancellation of the trips?

No explanation received as yet so will see if there is one in with the letter accompanying the cheque when I get it...

Thanks for the heads up, was wondering what was going on since we have not had any correspondence. Slightly gutted, dived the Scillies before and it is very good.

Will have to look for a plan B or just head off to the Red Sea!
