well not exactly, but I did finally get round to taking a photo of some clown fish (or ‘nemos’ to the likes of yous)

aye, maybe no the best photo in the world but due to ovewrwhelming public demand I thought I’d stick something up. Also on the same dive we saw this fella:

This is a Hawksbill turtle (you can tell it’s a hawksbill as it’s shell has a ’serated’ edge to it)

Happy now ?

Oh, and thanks to Ian and Summer for letting me borrow their camera…



That’s me an MSDT – finally…

aye folks, I’ve finally reached the dizzy height of MSDT (Master Scuba Diver Trainer)

That means I have certified at least 25 students and can teach at least 5 speciality diving courses (I can teach 8 )

It took a bit longer than I had hoped as they do not have online processing here and everything has to be posted in by the student divers

Anyhoo, another step forward – next step IDC staff instructor, which I will be doing when I move back to Thailand in a few weeks

Impressed ? Aye right, you just want to see a picture of nemo, ffs…
