Hi everyone

A few thoughts I had about our meeting next weekend:

Unless we have a kind, non-diving volunteer with good biceps, we are going to have to manage the rope and timings between ourselves. Laura and I have been looking at the depths / numbers, and we reckon it should all work OK, as long as:

a) The shallower divers don’t mind incorporating safety dives for the deeper divers ( who go first ), as part of their own warm up, and

b) Everyone who has booked a place turns up.

The deeper and mid-range depths can be split into just two levels, so that means that the rope can be pulled up by the deeper divers as soon as they finish their own dives.

Don’t forget there is a 5 minute gap between each dive, so with 8 people, everyone should be able to get a reasonable preparation period.

Laura has pulled together a 5 person Scuba support team, so it would be really appreciated that if anyone can’t make it for any reason, they give us at least 48 hours notice.

With the recent cold weather and lack of rainfall, I’m expecting the visibility to be reasonable – anyone who has an underwater camera might want to consider bringing it. I’m intending on bringing mine, and if I get any decent shots I’ll upload them onto flickr.

The pool will be open in 6 days….
 
"Laura has pulled together a 5 person Scuba support team" ... said Mume Altsaint

repeat slowly after me .... ANGELS. And we've existed now for a few years and we have wings and tanks and halos that sparkle and dazzle and gleam like the very amazing machine that we are. Angels Mume, Angels :head

nice one guys - thanks for being so organised

just got back from Egypt and going to Poland on Thursday so apologies, I won't be there.

however the following weekend me, Dave and Simon have a date with the cold lake and a lot of orange rope...... new drysuit and new scuba wetsuit waiting for me when I got home

got a feeling I might be blowing a few bubbles this year

Reactions: laura storm
Relax sweet mermaid ... nothing for you to do but splash around in that gorgeous emerald water and dive when the man who can says 'official top'.
Angels are never seen ... that's the beauty of it

If I am reading things right

9.30 am

Saturday Only

Angels cover - so if you gave me a depth, thats your target.
 
Mr Fish is a student again and working hard! I will have a life again soon... And I may have the freedive support vessel from hell too! Keep up the good work and keep training for next time we meet, so you dont get left 6 or 7 rounds behind with 10 min till closing time :friday
 
The angels are not seen but only heard singing (badly)......

Are we still on for the rugby after the dive ?

lammy
 
OK - the list for Saturday is

Theo 50m
Mark H
Liv 35m
Tim 35m
Remi 35m
Matthias 32m
Lammy 30m
Mandy the Mermaid 30m

Laura and the Angels in Support

Meet 9.30, rugby afterwards

If you want to also dive Sunday, it will be 25m max and you need to make sure there is at least 3 of you as there will not be Angel cover

have fun, don't do anything I wouldn't do

Sam
 
Looks like the rugby match is on Sunday ...
So unless we decide to come back on Sunday, it will be for next year I am affraid.
 
Yeah Lammy ... we sing bad tunes down there and play air guitar mid-water.
Gotta do something to while away the hours

Mark H is on for 50m me thinks.
