OK, so I had a quick dip with Charley this morning.

Nothing serious, just a little bimble to 28m around the old plane, one of the choppers and the swim-throughs. The object for me was to check out the integrity of my suit now it's back from DUI in San Diego and Hydrotech (long story for another post when I can be arsed) and I'm delighted to report that I remained totally dry and, with the ZipGloves, I was toasty warm even though it's 7c and we were in for 40 minutes.

I saw the 'GLOC memorial plaque' on the Devon, hadn't seen that before

Grant and Muckmuppet had more serious business to deal with at the deep end.

Sadly, I had to bail on the afternoon's dive as I had other business to get done, but it was nice to get back in the water again for the first time in a good few months.

The season has officially started!

Good day had by all!

Cheers Nick for the dive, 1st time i've been in openwater in a while, so a nice quiet one was welcome, a couple of things to learn from:

1. Neoprene does shrink if not kept wet, as my drysuit was a little tighter than i remember!

2. The kit has got a little heavier due to the dust that has formed on it.

3. The MP3 player i bought on ebay, is worth every penny.... Sorry Nick for the singing.

Thanks also to G-man, Muckmuppet, Wayne and Huw.

Cheers Both,

Noce swim accross to the pontoon it must be 1.5M deep in the walkway, the chap has to run a ferry in the boat to get the surface cover accross.

Nice dive if a little cold vis at 70M was the worst Ive seen it may be 5-8 M.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention the new NDAC ferry service. That was hilarious!

Son, you're going to have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming aircrew. You can't do both.

The aircraft limits are only there in case there is another flight by that particular aircraft. If subsequent flights do not appear likely, there are no limits.
