U arse! :waterwork

very sunny duck pond out here today by the way. It's flippin glorious! Just hope the breeze doesn't drop to nothing else I could well get stuck on here with fog! :-( not good! :head
 
We're looking at 3-4mph inshore - don't really know how that might equate to where you are.
Did I happen to leave 2 large mesh bags in your car? Can't find them anywhere :-(
 
don't think so? I'll have a look when I get back but haven't seen them. Seems to be a common theme with you and your gear?!? You are going to have to improve when bambino comes along. Forgetting where you left children is not normally a good idea! :naughty
 
........suprised you ever find your way back to where you parked your car!! remember where to get out Grant?? .......y'know, that rocky bit where the sea stops!!
 
don't think so? I'll have a look when I get back but haven't seen them. Seems to be a common theme with you and your gear?!?

Err - I have your mesh bag and rechargeable batteries in my pickup.

I'll get the batteries charged up as I can prob use them when your stuck offshore in the fog next week
 
granti 10 15 m s fairly shollow ! Fairly shallow to me is 3- 4 feet!! 10 m is deep for me LOL I've not done any free diving so when I get round to training I might go deep! What's a contour roam ?when cameras on yer gun is it sticking out the side?how come it throws ya shooting /Aim Off so much?

thaaaaaaaaaanks grant! you hexed my flight! :naughty
 
Bollox :-( :-(

I did wonder as its really misty all the way up the coast.
 
Another chopper gone in the drink this afternoon. Don't know any details.

Carrying my spearfishing gear is starting to sound appealing!! at least if it stays in one piece I'll be able to have sushi with a survival ration garnish!!
 
Think 17 rescued on national news ? fourth time them chopers gone in in four years lynks chopper i think. good job they float! and the RAF are around to help out .
 
Eurocopter EC225.

Other Super Pumas grounded too as have same gearbox I think.

I hate flying!.......strange career choice I know! :duh

17 + 2 crew. They had just passed a standby vessel so turned round and put it down next to it. Lucky. 30 miles from anywhere in the sea is a long way!

Good weather for it at least. Could have been a lot worse.
 
I've just taken a new job which is Glasgow based for 3 days a week.
Is anyone doing any midweek night diving within reasonable distance ?
I vaguely recall there was (maybe?) a pool session somewhere in Glasgow over the winter - anyone got any info?

Cheers

Grant

Anyone give me an indication of weather/swell/vis on East coast at the minute?? It's blowing a hooooooooooolly out here but a long way north so not necessarily the same.:head
 
Vis was around 1 ft today - dont reckon we're diving tomorrow night :-(
 
Were you North of the border grant? Quite a few fisherman got caught in freak waves over the weekend with the big swells coming in! Surprised you even managed to get out!

Did you have a good autumn out on the water?
 
Kayaking off Berwick Dave - the swell yesterday was a bit huge and a big tide today means its going to be dirty for a while.
Hoping it settles down for a few days diving over Crimbo.
Can't wait for the shortest day to pass then its downhill all the way into another wet & windy summer
You been out at all?
