Yesterday Paul, Amy and Paul Blower arrived so now we have the full crew here. Poor Paul (Blower) has soon been put to work. Whilst we were diving he spent the morning with his head stuck in a cupboard looking for a losse connection for the SSB radio. Thankfully he appears to have fixed it!
 
   
 
The crew's first night together!
 
Before we left the UK we did a PADI diving course, but needed to do 4 open water dives to complete the course. Our first dive was Monday last week, where we had to do some skills and in the afternoon we had our second dive. We dived for 45 minutes and would you believe it, amongst the fish was a shopping trolley in the middle of the bay. I had refused to dive in the UK because I didn't want to dive in a reservoir full of shopping trolleys - how ironic! Yesterday we completed our third and fourth open water dives. And thankfully there were no more shopping trolleys. We dived at 21.5 metres for 45 minutes, it was fantastic. At one stage we were surrounded by hundreds of sardines and a 4ft Grupa. So now we are divers!
 
   
 
Before and after!
