Diver's Notes

Good dive Snorkled out for 10mins and went down to 8m loads of kelp after a further 10mins we found an open area and caught few lobbies. We fished around for ages trying to get 1 out from under a large rock but couldnt get it before we stirrd up the bottom. I caught 1 and then lost my goody bag! we were running low on air (80bar) so started to head back to shore. But Thompa cant control himself and goes off chasing lobbies. John and i got back to the shore and Thompa was still 200m off shore! He eventually got back and john left to pick up his kids. Had a nice warm cuppa.
