Ronnie asked me to put this on as he hasn't reset his username.

Anyone fancy a weekend diving on the above dates. I was thinking about Oban for a play around the Breda. There is shore diving so trainees could go if any of the instructors were prepared to shore dive with them.

My plan is to go up on the Friday night, taking the club boat and possibly my own boat if numbers require it. Camp at Oban Divers camp site if it's available. There is also a log cabin there for the more delicate people who like the luxury of a bed (namely my wife). That leaves us Saturday and sunday to dive wherever weather and tide allows.

The prices for camping at Oban Divers is £10 per pitch for a 2/3 man tent, £12 per caravan and £8 per person per night for the log cabin. It takes 6 and if there are enough people to fill it, it's £35 per night (bargain).

This weekend suits me best because my wife and dive mascot (Daniel) can go. If anyone has any other suggestions of location, let me know. So far Me, Fiona and Gillian would be up for that weekend.

Ronnie, Yes I would be up for weekend, either staying in the log cabin or camping but I will be on my lonesome as both wife and child have other plans. ;D

Ronnie,

I too am up for that... But I've just broken my dive virginity - so it depends on an instructor being OK and there being enough Club Kit, etc. with me coming up.

Could all interested in the trip see me on monday 11th july at the club or phone me as i need to sort out accomodation for interested parties.
Unfortunately, after a recent discussion with Don Lees about dive sites for trainees its was pointed out that i had missed out on one important factor. The weekend proposed is going to be subject to spring tides making the sites unsuitable for trainee divers so regretably i have to withdraw the offer to them on this occasion.
Sorry for any problems or disappointment this causes.
