The last few days I have been out of the water due to my very sore foot.. I am glad to report it is getting better, but slowly…

The structure is coming on… another day or 2 of welding should suffice… and then we shall deploy it at Junkyard over the next week or so.

Jen has been teaching, and conducting the dive site cleanup… It was the biggest this year with 36 participants from our dive school… brilliant!

Today, we are off!!  Jen has laid in bed till almost mid day, while I sort our flights back to the UK…

I can now confirm, that we shall be arriving back on the 14th December and staying for a month… Get those spare rooms ready!!!

So,

The last couple of days, and for the next week… I am building (with help from a few kind people) a new structure for Junkyard..

Using our knowledge of what seems to work better, we have resorted to using similar materials with what we made the “Crystal Wreck” at Buoyancy World..

My Dutch student, as part of here Marine Resource Management course, was tasked with creating a new design, and of course being Dutch, she came up with a windmill…!

So, with much hard work cutting, grinding and welding in between showers of rain…also getting multiple electric shocks (welcome to Thailand), and possibly breaking a toe catching it in a tree root… I am looking forward to finishing it..

The frame is near completion… now comes the little bits of decoration that take so long…

We were going to start building a structure this morning… but we had information that a net was at one of deeper sites..

A team went and… I took a video.
