Forgot to mention - water temps were 17ºC throughout. Viz before the storm
was 30m, after the storm worse than Stoney on a particualrly bad day, the
following day around 10m. The three of us wore quite different attire.
Blubberman used a 3mm one-piece wetsuit, Nigel had a 5mm one-piece wetsuit
which was frankly more of a semi-dry (great item from Cressi!), while John
wore a drysuit. All staff were in drysuits.

I was going to drop in a plug for David & Yvonne, but Ken has beaten me to
it, so I'll just add an AOL style "me too"

I've dived with them 3 times (2002,3 & 4) - they're nice people, and the
diving is well organised - you can't really go wrong!

There's a few photos on my website www.paulsmithuk.com, not my best efforts
but better than nothing... :o)
