Hot, Hot, Hot.

Well summer is here! Each day it gets hotter and the water slowly heats up. We are all now out of our drysuits and are diving wet!:>> So what have we been up to?? First off Melanie Stommel completed her Extended Range course, so a big well done to her!! There would have been some nice pictures to go with this blog but we managed to flood the camera and housing whilst i was taking photographs of her doing skills She did forgive me though. Our male model Rob Bartlett was out to complete his Advanced Mixed Gas CCR course on his Meg, as well as some scooter diving and sidemounting. WE had a blast on most dives as always there is never a dull moment when Rob is out diving. The funniest thing was when he lost his new Force Fin whilst on his 15m deco stop and it floated to the surface. Angel and i had to then tow him along the reef to do his deco. We were in hysterics. He found the fin afterwards but managed to fall down the same hole TWICE in recovering it. By this time Angel and i were on the floor with sore ribs........ Unfortunately that is the last we will see of Rob for a while as he is off to Thailand for a year to do some shopping. So Long, Farewell, Auwedersehen, Adeau ( the sound of music) Sandra Hicks came out with her newly acquired Kiss Classic to complete her Level 1 Deco Course. I think that the Kiss is one of the harder units to learn on as the work of breathing can be hard if not in the right trim. Sandra got it off to a Tee within the first few dives and sailed the rest of the course. Well done. Scooters were the big thing next when we had 4 scooter courses to run over a two day period. Jonas and Jacob Gindesgaard managed to get a day to themselves for the scooter course. The two guys are teachers for a large Danish Sports College and they came out with 58 students to do the open water course with Werner Lau. They all had a great time and managed to get another day fun diving with the scooters. Markus Daase and Marko Schnick were up next for the scooter course. WE were lucky enough to be in the water before the 58 students jumped in so we managed to destroy the Viz before they did Again there were some great pictures taken, so when i have reduced them in size i will put them up for all to see.
