Zoe has now pulled out due to work commitments.

Which leaves me buddyless for the trip.

I will be trying my usual buddys to see if anybody wants the space.

So a space is now available.

I am 40 Metre certfied (air and Nitrox) and have no issues doing some deco, will be diving twin twelves, I have a 7 litre stage I would normally put EAN50 in for deco.

Prior to this trip I am also going to be beasted by a GUE Instructor in the fundamentals of GUE Diving. (I do not hold any hope of being qualified but I do plan on learning a hell of a lot! - from all the other GUE F course reports)

I'm sure we can get you plenty of practice on the trip - setting kit up, breaking it down, checking fills, charging torches, etc,etc

Hi Davie

I have no "Pre-arranged buddy" for this trip, so would be happy to buddy with you. I have usually found YD trips relaxed re buddies and usually team up with whoever will have me. Padi MSD- should be onto twin 12's by time of trip.

Really looking forward to the trip now, meeting some I've met before + new faces.

I'm diving with Weazelz and Hebails but as said above, these trips are usually pretty relaxed and I always go open minded and prepared to mix and match as appropriate. No one is going to end up diveless I mean, Scribley and I spent a week diving with David Pye

Just joking David It was a pleasure to dive with "Canoe boy"

We won't leave you out of any tech dives mate - don't worry!


You can bring the deco bottles down for us to save us lugging them around the wrecks



(Joking - we'll sort you out and have a bundle of laughs to boot!)
