WET, WET, WET.
I picked up Jonathan from his house in the red Ferrari leaving wonderful skid marks up his block paved drive (oops sorry!) as we sped off into the distance for another exciting days diving..outside Bazs!!
We roared down the road with Born to be Wild blasting out of the car to the deep roar of the 1300cc engine wheezing down Military Road.
Eagerly we kitted up and marched into the water. Oh s**t I am soaking, what is going on? We got out and effected a quick repair to turn my Typhoo teabag back into a drysuit. It didnt work and 30 minutes later I stepped out of the water having had a good if not very wet dive.
A cup of tea, biscuits, some quick repairs and a sit outside on Bazs deck in the sunshine to dry off and we were ready for round two. Our repairs worked perfectly this time.. right up to the point where we got back in the water, when I looked down I could see my drysuit foaming and frothing at the gash where the leak was Ah well you can only get so wet and the water temperature was 24c so it wasnt the end of the world.
We had another enjoyable dive before exiting the water in my case some 10kgs heavier than when I went in. We dekitted and sank a Cheeky Blonde before driving home minus my drysuit which is now hanging up in Bazs awaiting various repairs. It will never be the same!
All in all a good day out This one is for you Gaz hope your ear gets fixed soon!
