Scuba anyone?

When we went to Hurghada on the first day going out a reef (no idea which one it was because I have done the best to eradicate it from my mind), I looked behind us as we steamed, there were less boats crossing the English Channel on D Day. Once we started diving, the boats dropped name plates into the water so you know which boat o get back onto....If I never go back, it will be too soon.

We tried Egypt because it would be great to have a good dive destination "close" to home, but we realised that for us, time is not of the essence and doing really special shit is more important than convenience.

We have friends that absolutely love Sharm, but I simply cant see us being persuaded to go again.

@Giles how's the buoyancy?

[Giles]

Made no real difference, but i had a little negative buoyancy when I took my mask off, and could not see I was sinking

[Giles]

Some we saw today...Not my pics because all mine were utter shite.......

This little guy mimics the soft coral that surrounds him. And does a bloody good job of it...

What we really, really wanted to see - Melibe colemani - Ghost Nudibranch

And this little critter, another Nudibranch, probably 4mm long. I saw a brown splodge, I had no idea what it was until Shiela showed me this photo

Nudy orgy....

Scorpion Fish

Yet another couple of Nudy's...

@Giles Not sure if that was seal team six or six teen seals.
Would love to join You, it's been nothing but 4 degrees Celsius dives here in Stockholm's archipelago during the spring.

[Giles]

Getting ready for a muck dive with @Madame-Buttonfly. You'd never know I had just bust the zip of her wetsuit.

[Karol]

@Giles time for some cable tie.
Looking great guys!

[Giles]

She put my spare "cardigan" over the top, and all was good.....

But I have repurpose a couple of different sized cable ties for pointers. They are what the guides use here and it's a brilliant idea.....

Zebra Moray

Yellow Sea Cucumber

Rudimentary marina to start off a diving safari. I took the first photo after arrival and the second one after getting out of bed. The light of the day has not improved things.

[Giles]

That looks really great.......
