24HR Dive2 good dives from myself and el presidente, 10pm and 3am.
vis surprisingly good considering the number of divers that had been down before us. found big lobsters, big edibles, eventually found the conger at the end of our 2nd dive. loads of shrimp, squattys etc.
good atmosphere about the place, despite most folk being pretty tired spirits were pretty high. eventually got in at half 6 this morning, absolutely knackered but i think we all agree it was worth it!

Yeah, it was a cool event
Thanks to all of you for taking part. Mucho respecto to Scotty & Euan for doing such an extended shift (especially to Scott for giving up his ticket to the footie)!

It was proper wicked.
Me and the Gus man saw a huge lobster, a few big eatabil crabs, some conger, a flat fish, scorpion fishes (one really fat one), a flat fish, a bed of sea pens, loads of shrimp, pure huner's of glow sticks. And all of that without going past the end of the rope.......
However, the highlight of the night was the trip home. We made it from about Inverary to Stirling on just fumes. Included in this trip was an amazing clutch down coast from the top of the Restandbethankfull. Go on, guess where the car eventually stopped coasting from there.... go on....
Don't tell them till they guess Gus.

perhaps not that far chuck,
while i told shug to get out and push we decided that opening the door would cause far too much wind resistance. we got home because we used no radio, dipped lights only, no blowers, no wipers, no open windows and lots of leaning forward on any downhills.
guess again.
any news on if the 24hours got completed?
if shug and i managed the 13th hour slot then lets hope no-one failed after us.
good good
