I doubt it, we will obviously monitor the situation but this forcast is quite consistant with what i have been looking at all week, we made our decission very much awaire of the distances some people are driving.

In the event it looks like the wind will blow up before we are back we would look at a site on this side of the channel like The Hermann, which is an excellent dive in 35m (The Bell we beleve is still on this one somewhere )

Report here:- SS Hermann formerly known as the New Comet

But it don't look like we will need to fall back on that.

Looking at the sea off Calais this afternoon it looked a nice shade of Blue once you were about a mile offshore

If no one takes it, it means l can have double the bench space, you know l need it.

Stop pissing about on the interwebbythingy and get your kit sorted out, check list:-

Fins x 2
Death box x 1 with all its bits
Hood, mask, gloves, weightbelt, torch, reel, suit, undersuit (not Rebeccas), bailout, repair kit, lucky heather - that should do it

[Diving Dude]

Why o why do l bother gracing a bunch of kn*bheads with my presence!

For your information Paulie, l've spent the evening 'altering' the lurve box, so tomorrows dive will be a bit of guesswork regarding weighting, but hey ho, isn't every dive

So, do we have 'Madcow' from Norfolk with us to moan and bitch about everything?

Chunderfish is on the boat tomorrow, hmmm she seems to be picking up some of your habits as i am having to lend her a stage of 50 Cent, she is obviously hanging around with the wrong kind of people nowerdays

All that quality upbringing totally ruined by a bit of mild association with a damn pikey diver
