Mid-semesterDates 3rd - 5th April and 10th - 12th April.
The Waterfront Chalets are fully booked but as an alternative i've booked the town house in Oban. It holds 10 people and for one weekend you would be looking at around 49.50 (plus possible storage rental, meals etc). I realise we would be hoping to take more than 10 people there so we have two options, either we try to be cheeky and have people crash on the floor, sofas etc or book the extra beds in a youth hostel.
Payment will have to be fairly sharp when i get back so i just wanted to give a little bit of advanced notice 
Any thoughts/objections/suggestions leave a post or give me a text.

Right, update on mid-semester. The town house is booked for 8 people on the first weekend, two other people had already booked beds so we're sharing with them for the weekend. Its completely empty for the second weekend, but so far we only have 7 folk, and i'll book that one on the morra.
For the first weekend, do people want to chance those other two folk being cool with 2 people crashing on the floor or would they rather book 2 beds in the youth hostel, which is £13.90 a night?
|
Scotty Boy
|
at the end of the day its just a bed so im not really that fussed either way!!
|
Scotty Boy
|
also, do we get one of the storage rooms a puffin as we're using their accommodation?? would be really handy rather than storing wet kit in the bus.

Hiya, you'll all be delighted to hear that I'll be coming on the first weekend for the whole thing so I'll be able to drive the bus for you.

Does the place we are staying in have a drying room? I think we are staying in town from what Liam has told me so it would be a bit of a pain keeping stuff at puffin and having to get it from there. What do people think about getting fills from mike tye's? in stead of puffin, usually mike gives us a few free fills!!!
Just need to get Dot to do a bit of sweet talking!

I've just answered my own question, see below "Guests at the house will be issued with a front door key and room key upon arrival at the centre, for which we require a £20.00 cash deposit, redeemable upon the safe return of the keys. There is NO suitable storage for diving equipment in the house, however, subject to availability with priority given to our guests, you may be able to use one of our changing rooms free of charge - subject to a separate key deposit."

pretty sure mike ty has given it up? last i heard there was no dive shop and i dont think the compressor is there anymore either. worth looking in to though, id rather giv him my money than the thieving unhelpful grumpy twats at puffin.

Mid SemesterJust for all you newbies that may not have been told, remember to bring a thermos flask with you for soup, etc, between dives. I've been down at Makro today so we are pretty well sorted for food. Does anyone have any problems with Spaghetti Bolognese and Garlic Bread tomorrow night ??
