Might need to check traffic around the area over the weekend as Glastonbury traffic might affect the roads ? I know it's a bit of a distance away, but still worth considering...

 

[Trelawney]

Hey Podge

Can we bring BBQs to the campsite, or do they not allow them?
Camping just aint the same without burgers and beer...

Good thinking - I guess the Darzet boys need to think of another route past Shepton Mallet??

Wish I was coming, but you can't do everything in life, although I try my best to!!!

Saturday night, BBQ, camping, beer, followed by some Port = :friday

No problem with the BBQ chaps, but if possible not the ones that leave a bloody great burnt patch of grass after you’ve finished.

Scott, Ollie and Dan it’s a shame you can’t make it.

I'm afraid i'm going to have to bail.

I dived Wednesday and my sinuses were bad, some nice stringy snot and blood. They were clearing but slow but today its on my chest so i don't want to push it.

Bit gutted but i'll catch up sometime. Might even arrange my own event for you to come to.

Enjoy people.

I've already had my duties re-assigned to me so im looking at houses on Saturday now. booooh

And so to the second day, well I had to leave a little early so had myself a bit of a solo dive around the top half of the lake. Found a long ledge at around 8 meters down to about 13meters which was cool to swim along and then came across a heap of flooded trees and bush’s that seemed to have been there since the dawn of time, it was a real pleasure to drop down into the long dead branches of the trees a glide along and through them, top relaxing stuff.
As far as the weekend went, I’m fairly sure that everybody had a good time with some safety stuff and breathing exercise’s learnt.
A BIG thanks to Bryn and to Emma for there time and there knowledge.
Happy Days folks
Paul.
