Derek’s Dive Domain

OK, so I have had a pretty miserable time of it this summer, most of the diving has been cancelled by the weather and then last weekend just capped it all.  However, I do believe in the method that suggests that things will come good eventually, and hopefully this will be the case pretty soon…

As of this evening, I have the following trips booked, or about to be booked:

Trip One:  For the August bank holiday week, it looks as though I will be flying out to Copenhagen, meeting a friend who is working out there, and staying at his place in Sweden for a week.  He is a diver, so we are hoping to do a couple or more dives on the Swedish coast, which would be fantastic.

 Trip Two:  At the start of October, I am flying out to Ibiza with my sister, for a week in nice sunny weather, and will hopefully get half a dozen or more dives in during the course of the week.  My sister is a non diver, but its been arranged with diving in mind, and a little lounging around the pool at the hotel with beer

Trip Three:  Hopefully, but to be confirmed is another trip, purely for diving in Spain for the first week in December.  I am just waiting for confirmation of the flights being booked, but all being well this will go ahead.  I have the holiday reserved at work, and can just about find the money, although its cheap flight time :)  This should be a top week, and diving a whole new area that I have never dived before, although with the water being about 15-18 degrees, I think it will be drysuit time.

 As they said in the D:Ream song, “Things can only get better”.  The futures bright, the futures underwater, perhaps…
