Talking Something to keep us occupied?
Ok, since the cold yucky weather is fast approaching, i want to organise something to keep us occupied over the winter.
  • Fiona's hard hat / chamber dive went down a storm last time, so that is a possibility.
  • What about the SETT tank (although some of these have struggled if i recall rightly, plus it is a bloody long way for me!).
  • What about a fish tank dive at one of the aquariums - the one in edinburgh do it for £65 per person (expensive i know, but those sharks are feckin huge ) if we get 8 of us together who are all qualified and bring our own kit, then a night out on the town in edinburgh?
  • Something non-diving related such as Go-karting somewhere central and easy to get to?
Ideas please - might need to book some of these things sooner rather than later!

Yeah, I know. They have the bonfire night fireworks in the last week. Usually quiet during the week as the kids are at school - well, most of 'em.

Haven't been this year so I haven't tried out "Rita" yet.....

I've done a shark tank dive in Melbourne. It is ok, but not worth £65 to my mind.
