The last few days has been busy eco wise..

A couple of days ago, we repopulated the nurseries we have at Twins.. It took 12 people doing 4 dives in a short space of time to complete the project. As well as that, I was doing some “cropping” at our “Crystal Wreck” as a disease had appeared… so I was trimming back the affected coral to prevent any further spread of disease.

Then we went diving with Sophie… Jenny’s friend from the UK… she had lots of fun!!

We spent Sophie’s last night at a restaurant in Sairee called Fizz… all of us staying much later that we thought, and all of us waking with headaches the next morning.

Yesterday was a organising day for me… for today, which is Beach & Dive Site Clean Up…

For the first time in a few months, I had time to take out my camera yesterday…

It was sooooo nice to be filming again… I felt like a new diver again!

I took some videos of Twins for a updated version of “The Crystal Wreck” and also some footage of the Sea Hares at Junkyard who have suddenly reappeared… You gotta love those guys!

I received my blood test results on my birthday!

Thankfully it was good news and my liver function has returned to normal, so apart from a few bouts of tiredness I am back to full health.

My birthday was fairly uneventful throughout the day. I was on an instructor course, sitting in class for most of the day, while Jen was working with an Open Water course of 8 people.  In the evening however, a few friends joined us for dinner at the local pizza place called Porto Bello.

I left a little inebriated, and we hopped into a taxi home, whereupon we both slept like logs!

The next day it was back to work for both of us, and Jen is still continuing to dive with the same students conducting Advanced Open Water.

Last night, one of Jenny’s friends (Sophie) arrived on the island… we went to dinner at Whitening (Thai / Western food) and Sophie is going to take a Discover Scuba Dive today. Jenny has refused to conduct it as they won’t stop laughing… Hopefully she enjoys it and maybe wants to do an actual course… either way, I think the next week that Sophie is here is going to be full of a few late nights!

Day off today for me! My plan is to wrap up some UK work, and then hit the bar for the Formula 1 this afternoon…. SWEET!
