Out of interest, has anyone had any joy during the winter months between Dec -Feb? I'm contemplating a wetsuit upgrade!

hmm, I'm liking the idea of winter diving. What water temps can I expect along the Sussex/Dorset coast? Glad I have my 7mm now.
Last year at its coldest my D3 was giving 5 degrees, the year before we had one dive in 4 degrees. Gives you the old ice cream head ache for the first 5 mins but you soon numb up to it and after that it’s fine for an hour or so. Oh and i use a 5mm so in your 7mm you'll be fine.
I like winter diving apart from the getting in and out bit.
I'm thinking of taking a small pop up tent and a heater this year for that bit
Smart idea that one but make sure the heater is propane type and has a knock-over cut off safety switch. Getting shrink wrapped in molten nylon would suck. :duh
