Today, we had organised to go to Junkyard, as it was in need of repair after the terrible weather we have had recently..

So, double diving it with 16 people, we got a lot done! While Jen took a bunch of guys to fix 1 structure, me and Carsten (in his fantastic rooster hoodie) went to fix the Tin Man.

Although the visibility is still not good, there was a lot of good work done, and even a great barracuda on the site…. very nice!

ext dive, since Carsten was itching to saw something, I let him loose on the truck tyres… Carsten was unaware that the tyres are threaded with steel wire… and 15 minutes later, he gave up much to my amusement..!

Then we headed to the new coral nurseries, to give the a waft and remove sedimentation..

A great day, and all tasks that we needed to complete, were done… its good to be diving again… 🙂

Hey guys,

I am sorry to report, that there is absolutely no news!

We have been battered by storms over the last few days, keeping us indoors and very bored!

Hopefully we are through the worst, and we can start having some fun again !!! 🙂

Day 272 – Koh Tao

The last few days have been quiet.  Simon did however go for his first dive in 52 days as we were both teaching a Peak Performance Specialtiy course for a couple of American kids.  I briefed and led dive one just in case he had any equalisation issues, but all was good ;-D  It’s brilliant to be diving together again.
We had a good first dive, even though it was 3 meters viz and both students were very keen.
The second dive was pretty much the same, a few different skills but enjoyable.  I dont think either of us have ever seen students get so excited about Christmas Tree worms and sea cucumbers.
Yesterday we popped down to collect our dive kit at Planet Scuba and then went to Crystal to see if anything was happening, which it wasnt, so went home.
Later that evening we went back down to the Crystal bar and put on a movie ‘Scott Pilgrim vs the World’ which we both thought was pants.  Tomorrow, as there’s no Open Water Vids, we’re going to put on a classic horror!

GOOD LUCK to my ‘ugly’ sisters Rosie & Fi  lol …who should now be in South Africa doing a sponsored walk for Breast Cancer     …‘those feet were made for walkin’
