Fearing the worst and full of self recrimination for lagging behind taking pictures and not being there in an emergency he had immediately followed us up. When he had surfaced he'd heard Kate laughing but had thought she was crying in distress after some terrible incident. His face when he came up the ladder was a real picture - pity we didn't have his camera! Bless him.

Hahaha!!!! Was VERY funny!!!!!

So not too shabby then Kate &nbsp;

Sounds like they might drag you out on another trip next year but don't forget there is still much fun and good diving to be done over here in the meantime. &nbsp;

Now how long before you get that boyfriend of yours on a OW course &nbsp;(Surprise christmas present perhaps)

Glad you all had a great time.

If anyone fancies going back to the Red Sea look at Andy P's Southern Egyptian Red Sea trip for April 2004.

Great report, Mark! Yes, the Red Sea is indeed fantastic. And you've still to see the best parts of it. By the way, the wellies aren't wellies but all that's left of chemical warfare protection suits, according to the experts.

I can safely say that I wont be kicking and screaming!!! I just want next year to be now!!! I've been convinced by a couple of the guys to invest in a dry suit, so I'm now saving for that as well!

<font color='#736AFF'>1.  Top report Mark.  As you know, I started my trip report on night one of the trip, but soon became more interested in the diving and the craic to keep it up.  I think you've covered pretty much everything I was going to say (mmmm, yes, and a bit more!   I'm no rottweiller! well, I might let the defence lawyers (and Gavin) think that!    )

2.  Mark, thanks for the initial booking and posting.  Thanks to you and Debbie for your hospitality on Saturday night.  Good choice of restaurant and thanks also for a yummy breakfast on Sunday morning   .

3.  Excellent trip. &nbsp;Good to dive with some YD'ers and great also to meet the others on the board. &nbsp;At least one of whom (Sue) has now joined us on YD (come on Sue, introduce yourself!).

4.  Here's some photos......
