OK so we have -

Saturday
Liv
Dave Harries
Andrew C
Simon Jedi

Sunday
Simon Jedi
Mandy
Andrew C
Dave Harries
Marcus

If any of you can no longer make that, let me know as it might mean a change in plan (particularly if you are pulling out of Saturday)

You will need to keep it shallow, 40m max, as the pontoon is not fixed properly on its moorings yet.

Liv - please bring your shed key - leave it open over night and Simon, please make sure its locked up when you leave on Sunday

thanks loads and have fun

Ooh Sam, is it too late for me on Saturday? Assuming a couple of things like:
1) someone will give me a lift (will check with Livvy), and
2) Pen will let me.

I need to test the new fin!

Cheerio,
Ben

 

[samdive]

that would be great Ben - we could do with someone else on Saturday! Liv gets back from Egypt on Thursday I think - maybe give her a call on Friday and check

 

[Waterysmile]

Alternatively, Ben, if you could get yourself to Fleet you could come along with me.

 

[Padowan]

I already mailed Sam this, but I've got to pull out of Saturday - will still be there on Sunday, and if Ben can make Saturday then I feel a lot better as then there are still more reasonable numbers. See you all on sunday.

 

[samdive]

meeting times - 11am Saturday, 9.30 Sunday

Ben, Dave, Andrew I'm really sorry about this but my head is all gunked up and I'm not good to dive 2mrw. I was waiting to see if it'd be ok today - but going to have to cancel. Also my car making weid noises.
Spoken to Ben and think he's gonna leave it this time as it would leave just 3 of you without me, and the conditions are still quite chilly, so I'm afraid that means having to cancel Saturday.
Hope you all have a good day diving on sunday - appologies again.

Liv

 

[tecdave]

Not a problem Liv,
Will see the rest of you on Sunday!!

Dave

 

[BennyB]

Sleep in Saturday you say?

Oh... ok

 

[Waterysmile]

It's all a plot to prevent me practising equalising, I say. Booo.

Sunday it is, then.

 

[Waterysmile]

Brrr, cough.

A pleasure to meet you all and thanks for all the advice. Hope to dive with you again when my feet and nose are warmer!

 

[saltfreemermaid]

....just about defrosted my feet now...

It was pretty chilly in the water, even though the sun was out

Big thanks to Simon, for organising us, had a great day, even if i felt a bit rusty and out of practice,

Thanks to dave for the tips... been practicing some empty lung equalisations in the pool... it felt very weird !!

see you guys soon

I can't take too much credit for "organising" the day - I just got the key from the office, and then said "well, shall we get changed then..?"

I think I must win the competition for "how many times do I need to tie and re-tie the weights onto the downline before I have it all threaded correctly through the beam!"

Shame about the wind, it was a tad chilly, but I had a fun, relaxed day and although didn't beat any of my PBs or push myself very hard, I felt nice and comfortable in the water.

 

[samdive]

glad you guys had fun, see you soon! and thanks for getting on with it!!
