It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
don't panic yet - I think I might come up

there are a few safety issues with diving the "shallow" end - loads of scubies and it's hard for you to watch each other so I'm not mad on the idea

will let you know soon

Sam
 
I'll come up - so we are on for both days

Saturday - meet at 11am
Sunday - meet at 9.30am

See you there!

I will be driving up from Milton Keynes on Sunday morning so what time do you expect to hit the water? I can forego the pre diving cup of red bush.
 
Great I'll get there as soon as I can. I may end up doing no fins I killed my feet diving without wet suit socks all last week so I may not be able to get my fins on I certainly can't wear shoes yet.
The dolphins were worth it though.

So may be shallower than originally planned. Still aiming for 20m though.

Roger - 30
John P - 25
Tessa - 20

Shallow dives might be CB.

i might not get 40 due to recent shoulder dislaquation ( operation due in october..) but certainly 30ish...
will be good to see you.
see ya'
 
Well done people. Lots of pbs and equalling pbs. Stopped me being a miserable sod.

Go, the free immersers!
 
Andrew nice pb- but slap on my wrist for the rope set up :rcard - made it a good day despite all the rain.

Sam, I owe you subs - no change and I ran away before Liv got back to the top.

Lammy
 
Thanks, Lammy. I managed 29 metres on the Sunday and Tessa pulled out 25 free immersion too. (Not to mention a nice clean 65 fi from Mark).
 
Hey,

Well done Thalia and Mike on making their 2* diver certs - and Charlotte on her 1*. You guys are very detirmined. A few more crazy freedivers unleashed onto the world! I know it wasn't the nicest weekend to throw yourself into a lake! (Chepstow is now about a metre deeper after all the rain on Saturday).

Good to see everyone else too.. especially Le shrimp back in the water again:t

x Liv
 
Good teamwork, everyone. Glad you all had a good time, and that we had a respite from the rain god on Sunday.
 
yeah thanks folks! sorry I couldn't make it - other ear is now sore, how does that happen? does infection travel through the brain and out the other side???

answers on a postcard...
 
Hi and thanks to everyone, Sunday was a really good day.

I'll bring a spare pair of shoes next time I camp!


Sam: I think you could be right about ear infections - I had one in my left ear then a week or so after that had gone I had one in the right ear. So annoying!


Cheers,

John.
