Already noted. Not happy.

See you on Sat ... though a little bleary eyed, I expect

Very bleary eyed for me. I am doing a photo shoot until 00:30 that morning and the late start suited me perfectly.

07:15 arrive means a 05:45 leave, not good for deco diving but I have several sets of tins which need to be there. Guess who won't be very talkative on the way out to the dive site.

Smudge, when did this change as from April we have been shooting for a late start and this is what was causing the gas faffs that night?

I am really sorry its causing you problems - but as I said on the phone there is nothing that can be done about it

TBH I have had nothing but hassle with this trip and now all I want to do is have a really good weekends diving

See you all Sat

Don't forget, still a space available on the Saturday. Cheers HP for taking the space on Sunday.

Had a chat with Gloc on the phone about this

I arrive home at 11pm tomorrow night and would need to be on the road by 3330. He arrives home 1am and would need to be on the road by 5am.

I'm not sure either of us will be able to make it on the Saturday, so will let you know depending on whether or not we can get away early as neither of us are happy deco diving when exhausted.

I just don't get this. The whole issue about struggling to find trimix late at night was due to the late start, which is now obviously a non-issue. This might be convenient for people in the area, but a raidcal change of times like this is a nightmare for people having to travel, and not the trip we signed up for, sorry.

We'll let you know tomorrow if we will be there on the Saturday. We're not trying to be awkward, but this is a big change, and neither of us wish to dive if we feel we are going to be dangerously tired.

I have just spoken to Smudge again

Ropes off is now 12 noon

Hope this is OK with everyone

Sorry for any confusion

See you all Sat

Thank you Marianne for sorting that out.

You can tell us all how much fun it was organising this trip when we see you Saturday

[Gareth Burrows]

Hiya Smudge / Marianne

We very much appreciate the re-organisation, means we can relax and enjoy the weekend. Hope this doesn't mess up whatever plans you had yourself though!
