• Beowulf hard boat trip went ahead on Saturday and fun was had by all. Thanks to Jens for Managing the trip. Sundays Sharks teeth dive had an even better tiime and managed to get in 30 dives. Thanks to Steelo for towing and all the instructors and DL for helping to take people in.
• The Furious Plymouth hard boat trip on the 13/14th June is full. Have fun you guys.
• I am running a Mulberry  dive  on the 14th June which is open to all levels. I  do require HELP to take people in. I  already have 4 names of newly qualified ocean divers and 1 trainee who would like to go but I can't take them all in. If you want to join us and  can take someone in that would be a great help. Contact me direct.
• Skin Deep  Weymouth 20/21st June has 3 spaces left £150 incls B+B.        Beowulf 26/27th June  Poole £100 for the two days. Or £50 if you just go  for the Sat or Sunday.
• Atlantic diver 27/28th June  Newquay  is full.
• For all soft Boat divers. Can we please try to get the boats washed down before they are returned to the boatshed. The reason for this is two fold A/ The sooner we wash the salt off the less corrosion takes place. B/ there are  less and less people turning up on a Tuesday evening to help wash the boats down.  For example 18 people used Mckie on Sunday and only 5 made it down to wash the boat. There are lots of reasons why people can't help to clean. Location, work courses etc. So its far easier to clean them on the day if its possible.
• If anyone hired club kit over the weekend and/or if you do in the future can you please make sure it is returned washed and availible for pool use for the Tusday evening. This week we were very short of kit for guys training in the pool.
• Last Shout for the Drysuite deal from Oxygene. £360 for a Typhoon pro sport including an undersuite. Contact Joe from Oxygene direct. we need ten for the deal to work. There are 5 from our club and about 3 from Cranleigh club.
• Pete Ross has membership cards.
• Xmas Bash 70 have already paid deposits so Tanya has gone for a second    room so we can have a total of 95 people.  Contact Tanya asap.

Thats all folks
