Portsmouth submarine trip 25th March 2005

As I seem to be the new resident Jonah, I'm keeping my mouth firmly shut on the weather

Is there any plan on calling the skipper on Friday - Ian to do it and post on here?

Who's Dave?
Dive Connection called me on Friday last week to let us know it was a 'no go'
I know that they called Lou, Howie & Iani.
I'm guessing (could be wrong here) that they will contact us.

Bugger, this is what you get when you let your mind get filled with work stuff and stop concentrating on the important things, like YD. I meant Ian, as he is the trip organiser.

OK, gang, I know this is probably a really daft question, but can anyone tell me wtf we are actually diving

Just so as I can get some gas in me tanks like.......

Is it a 2 dive day?

Also what time are we leaving at?

[Ian@1904]

I am in meetings on Friday afternoon, and without internet access until I get home. So I would know, but no one else. Could someone else ring the skipper and post a post on here 5ish? I may not get in contact with skipper until at least 7pm.

Dive plan is U90 and Nab Tower

Last time I checked we leave 9.15 am on Saturday

Ian - they will call everyone on the list if it is cancelled. That is what I was told and what happened with us. If they don't call it is on. Phone TDC and check that this is what will happen, but that will save them getting 12 calls
