Hi Started my diving in Mexico, dived in Dom Republic, now dive around Pwllheli, Angelsey area, Moelfre is pretty good!!!

Work away quite a bit so diving is limited to when home or when I`m allowed by the wife, ha ha ha.

Willing to dive anywhere so long as there is some sort of underwater life to see I don`t really understand the fascination of diving in some freezing cold quarry with some pieces of scrap metal at the bottom, just doesn`t do it for me.

Want to go on or dive from charter boat but they require the numbers so I will be willing to make up the numbers & don`t mind travelling iether.

So give us a shout if you want to dive!!!!!!!!

Next trip Egypt, 5 star Nabq bay, Red Sea May 2012, 10 dives booked, lovely warm sea, good vis etc etc, can`t wait.

Just come back off a ten day holiday in Lanzarote were I had a total of 8 dives ranging to 32mtrs at the end of the Dock wall at Carmen del Play on the 3 wrecks there.

We also dived in Charco del Playa were we managed to see 1 very shy Moray who always avoided the camera & quite a few very interesting Rays, Octopuss, Crayfish, yellow eyed shrimp, groupers etc etc.I would definitely recomend the diving in & around Teguise it was amazing as well as the sea temp being around 24 the vis was in access of 20mtrs.

I dived with a group called Daivoon from Costa Teguise, really good people who didn`t rip me off, all the gear, pick up drop off & 8 dives for just shy of £200 so I couldn`t complain if I tried, try them you won`t be sorry.

I suppose the next dive I will be looking forward too will iether be Moelfre or Vivian quarry, cold, Brrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Hi everyone, yes we went to Vivian, freezing again & I had trouble popping my ears.No site of any fish iether.So this easter I am going to persuade my buddy to dive at Angelsey in salt water as it is much much warmer, approx 3 degrees celsius warmer taking it to around 11.

Happy Easter & remember don`t eat too many eggs, safe diving.

Hi People, Dived at Vivian quarry in North Wales with my buddy Steve on the 24/3/12, boy was it cold only 4 at the surface & around 2 on the bottom at 18mtrs, few boat wrecks & other scrap debris but otherwise slightly dead as far as life goes, we were promised to see brown trout as well as eels but I think they were too well hidden for us.Came out looking like Smurfs when we went to get changed, I think I will have to invest in a dry suit.

We are trying it again this Sunday, mad I know but a dive is a dive!!!!!!! Safe diving.
