Re: Holiday Guernsey 2008

Beautiful day today, no wind but just enough surf for Graham to have a go & calm enough for Graham to have a dive! He reported very clear water in the shallows!

Re: Holiday Guernsey 2008

So do I Jim!

Back home now - washing done, suit disinfected, lawn mown and dinner cooked!

What a week! The wind conspired against us, the waves conspired against us, the vis conspired against us, and the fish conspired against almost all of us! The islanders, however, conspired to show us a magnificent time that made up for all of the above.

Special thanks go to Sarnian and Mandy, for a Paella that even podge couldn't finish; to Foxy's mate Dave for showing us the best hostelries; to soul man Dave ( wouldn't have made it across the rocks without the loan of his soles!), and Helen; and,of course, to Foxy and Sarah for the fantastic meals and hospitality they provided during our stay.

When I get to posting pics I'll put up the one of Podge holding what appears to be a lobster, but is in fact just one claw!!

Special thanks also go to OMD for accompanying us in what for him were normally un-divable conditions. The night dive was highly memorable and I got to experience at first hand OMD's sole sonar, as he proceeded to see 5 to my 0!

It was great to meet other members including Podge, Stuckinsurrey, Derek even older, Magpie and Jony 250, and I hope to meet with you all again sooner or later.



Once again thanks to Foxy for taking the trouble to organise, and do much of the work for, this event - including reminding me how to successfully fish for mackerel on the days the weather was really bad!

Very best wishes to all

Birchy

Re: Holiday Guernsey 2008

I would also like to thank all the participants in this years fish-in, I think we all enjoyed each others company & I certainly enjoyed cooking for such an appreciative bunch of guys & girls.
See you next year if not before?
