Re: 2 3 August meet - sign up here

Hi Sam,

both Omar and Kate have completed their 2** exam, Kate has dived the SETT and Vobster and has been in touch with you previously. Omar has dived the SETT a couple of times. Kate is around 24m and Omar at 26m.

We would most likely all like to go for max 30m if it's ok for us all to come along?

Re: 2 3 August meet - sign up here

This meet is mighty busy so we are going to run two sessions on Saturday:

Saturday
arrive 11am and head straight down to pontoon:
Tim
Jay (40+)
Brian C (40+)
Gary
Louise
Kate G
Kerri
Martin

arrive about 1.30pm and head straight down to pontoon
Sam
John
Brian D
Hannah
Omar
Kate
Liv and students

Sunday - we should be ok all at once unless more people sign up. Meet at 9.30am
Sam
Tim (40+)
Martin
Brian D
John
Brian C (40+)
Gary
Kate
Hannah
Omar
Kate G
Kerri
Liv and students

If there are any more people, these times might change so keep an eye out

With this many people, we can't lend kit - so please make sure you all have your own INCLUDING weights and lanyards. We can sell you a lanyard if necessary. It would also be very helpful if people could be prepared to swim out to the platform - we can't ask the boat to shuttle us all day!

I will try and get Angel cover for the people doing 40 or more - if there's no "40+" next to your name and there should be, let me know.

Wondering if we will get this many sign ups in February? : )

S

Re: 2 3 August meet - sign up here

Hi Sam, thanks for accomodating us. Myself and Omar are only intending to come on the Saturday. As I understand it, Kate and Brian intend to dive on the Sunday too.

Re: 2 3 August meet - sign up here

This is soo, so cool. It's awesome seeing so many people interested in going down for a splash in the green. After Double Dip it really looked like there was a new wave of people coming down and what's even cooler is that you're all coming back again!

Sam, Dave and the Angels put in a HUGE amount of work to provide Britain's best freedive facility and arguably one of the best in the world (if you're not biased against green and sometimes cold); in the 2 years i've been going I think Sam has only been in for a training dive a couple of times so it's a real self sacrifice for her. That's why it's great to see people appreciating the effort.


Cheers,
Ben

Re: 2 3 August meet - sign up here

campsite is Beeches Farm and directions are on our website

http://www.geocities.com/samdive/dre...heretostay.htm

and YES what Benny says is right, this is my first training dive myself for about a year so please give me a chance to do that (and I'll help you all afterwards!)

thanks

Re: 2 3 August meet - sign up here

should be OK from 30.... 40 has involved a bit of snogging to recover in the past!

Newbies - please take a look at the attached before you come along

thanks
