Did 4 dives over Easter, minimum depth 10m, maximum depth 13m, minimum bottom time 7 mins, maximum bottom time 11 mins. And 200 scallops (7 Kgs) have paid with their lives..... My Easter BBQs were both very well attended too.

Flat calm and the new boat was brilliant, steady as a rock with the 30HP on but still goes pretty quick. And the new locally designed and manufactured (stitched plasticicised canvas!!!) liftbag worked really well.

So did Gloating miss out on the bad weather? Where is Gloating, is it somewhere in Sussex?

Yep 4 sea dives for me too over the easter weekend: off MV Brendan (one of lochalines boats)

26m for 46 mins
16m for 51 mins

30m for 48 mins
15m for 47 mins

7 degrees, best viz over 10m, worst viz on the drift dive about 3-4m.

Managed to get wet at NDAC, Chepstow after being blown out on the Milford Haven gig. Took a bit of video on my point and shoot camera, I didn't intentionally go to shoot video as the following evidence will prove, but had a good couple of dives with Sixy and I only made her flood her mask twice.

But I was pretty much clearing it all the time right from the first descent when you started me laughing my head off
and ............ I'm taking my helmet next time we dive together, throwing gravel at me ............


Ah me, memories of the antics in Plymouth 2006 when we were having a heatwave and the sea was a millpond. Seems like a different planet !

Nice video, great diver in it

Errrrm, but you ducked and flinched when I threw stones at you...underwater, so what use is a helmet?
And I'm sure you'll think twice about asking me to 'Start you off' again
