Winter Pause

This is my first winter as a scuba diver.

But other than flicking through the pages of Dive magazine and looking at the pile of second-hand gear that I've acquired, nothing else is happening in my diving world.

I've not even made contact with the local BSAC group. They meet every Thursday evening and as attempts to engage online have failed, I need to get along to one of their gatherings. Unfortunately, Thursday isn't a great evening for me to be out so it hasn't happened yet.

I am looking forward to doing more diving next year. Before I do, I need to have my recent acquisitions tested. I have two large cylinders, a BC, regs, a drysuit and associated bits and pieces. Most of it has sat unused for a few years and needs checking by a professional before going back into use.

Even this blog has been neglected of late. Hence this post, which is really just to flag that I'm still here and I'm planning to be back in the water next year.
