    and very civilised the maids were too!
    Fresh tea and coffee offered to us the moment we walked in through the door, free wireless internet, (not that I taken a machine with me), all the proper papers (Mail, Mirror and the Torygraph)

    We stayed at the Grove Hotel. Mrs Ian@1904 says she would like to back to this hotel. That is praise indeed.

    Thanks for that.

    Didn't see you guys at all - even when we were on Raglan, which is odd. Suprised you went for the Volnay instead of the Manacles on Sat, given the perfect conditions - must be a bunch on metal-heads, eh?
    Bit of a relief TBH, I find the Mohegan etc somewhat sterile, never quite enjoy it. Horses for courses and all that.

    O for mOhegan I suppose

    LOL. There you go picking a wreck again! Can't you just admire the beauty of the life ont he ricks? Nowhere else in the UK can you see jewel anemones like you can on Vase / Raglan / The Wall / Pen Win!

    You really don't come to Falmouth to dive wrecks. Apart from the Hera of course. Best wreck in the bay <30m in my opinion.

    Only got 4 to go at (well, 8 if it is one each side) ...there's some odds for you.
