Just back from a trip to Loch Sunart.

4 or so days pikeying it up in the back of the van. 7 dives including some relatively deep ones and a decent meal of scallops to boot

Need a fresh logbook

Just started spearfishing.

Getting better at holding my breath. Not had much success so far. Not really scuba diving this. The North Sea seems a fun place to learn!

I have been spearfishing for 2 years now, let me know if anyone is up for a trip... Just wear 5-7mm suits and your should be alright even though we are getting closer to winther.

Excellent

I keep looking at warm water diving but it's a dear do, could do 50 dives over here all in for the price of a trip. Chuuk lagoon is definitely on the list within hopefully not too many years, as is the great lakes... this pic is of a ship sunk in 1899 would you believe! The low oxygen content of the water has meant it's very preserved:
