Sorry guys - been well busy today. I'll be there!

 

[fishfox]

Sounds good, I'll be there. I'm expecting Tunny to turn up, I'll give him a bell to confirm.

 

[silent night]

Cannot make the dive tonight but will try to get across for the social. Same bar, same pub as last time I presume.
Paul did you get my cheque for the BSA?
Cheers Steve :friday

 

[Paul Smith]

Steve - Yes got your cheque - Your float number is 43

We ended up at Swanage (Durlston) I hope you didn't turn up at the Lulworth Pub?

I am off to Plymouth on Sunday with the Exe Club.

See you on Tuesday?

Paul

 

[silent night]

Thanks Paul. Rick gave us a call and let us know re the change. Hope to be in the water Tuesday but have a blocked up head that is slowly clearing.:head

 

[Gaz D]

I was gonna try to get down and jump on that Plymouth Breakwater trip, but I properly stabbed myself in the hand with a Stanley knife yesterday at work, so I'm gonna be out of the water for a week or two now - bugger!

 

[Paul Smith]

Gaz,
Plymouth trip cancelled anyway - hope your hand gets better - you know you are not to play with sharp things:naughty

Anyone going in tomorrow?

Paul

Hey everyone,

Wind forecast is for a very strong northeasterly tomorrow, and it's been blowing a gale from the east today. I think Poole / Swanage area will be a complete no-go, so....Any suggestions for dive spot for tomorrow night?

 

[broughy]

Please let there be somewhere, i have spent all weekend sorting out my float so i need to see if the modified bodyboard still floats with all the straps and bolts through it, lol

If not will still have to meet for a pint eh !!!

 

[the_milkman]

K-Bay? Chesil Cove? Eastern end of Ringstead?

 

[silent night]

I am stuffed yet again wifey is on call, so I am on Dad duties. Might be able to squeeze a quick social if you decide to come over Weymouth way.:headSteve

 

[Gaz D]

K-Bay? Chesil Cove? Eastern end of Ringstead?

Can't make it tomorrow, but I reckon you've got to consider Chesil Cove as a strong contender. Kimmeridge might be ok. Chapmans is nice and sheltered, or maybe even Worbarrow, if the military aren't firing. I reckon Ringstead will probably still be blown out though. I guess you've got to balance the long drives/walks against the possibilty of viz - it might be dreadful all along the coast, or you might just find a spot that is just about fishable. Personally I'd head for the other side of Portland.

Good luck fellas.

 

[Gaz D]

I'll be around during the later part of the week, if the conditions are right and anyone is up for a dive.

 

[silent night]

Oops shore leave has been withdrawn as wallpapering has to be done. Hope you can find some viz. See you next week. Cheers Steve:wave

 

[the_milkman]

ANYONE? Or is it too windy? :martial

 

[rascolor]

:fridayAny time this weekend sat or sun. Day or night

 

[broughy]

All, just got in from a nice evening, we dived the far end of chessel beach on the west side where the water was glassy calm with very good vis.

Paul smith found that the water was deeper than he expected not far from shore with an estimated 40 - 50 foot dives.

Sadly no fish were caught but i found my adapted bodyboard float worked a treat and did not sink with all the stainless steel bolts through it (told Rick he should have patented the idea).

Paul Also has a few good ideas about future meets that im sure he will let you all in on before next week.

Cheers

Broughy

 

[the_milkman]

Broughy - can't believe you guys went without me!!! I thought no-one was diving!! Never mind - next week fellas!

 

[silent night]

Rick, I guess those toe nails must have spooked them more than you thought!
