OUUEG visiting North Norfolk. 13–14 August 2022
On 13-14 August I went on my first expedition with OUUEG. Kirill and I went to dive in Norfolk to see two wrecks of steam ships, sunk at the beginning of the 20th century: SS Vera and SS Rosalie (my favourite!). We also did two drift dives from the shore, and made lots of underwater friends (mostly crabs and lobsters). Altogether, a fantastic little adventure in a jolly good company!
The North Sea can be calm, warm (22°C !!!), and welcoming! -
Lymington 16th October 2021
A group of ten divers went to Lymington on the Saturday for two dives off the Wight Spirit. We first went on a drift dive at around 16 meters, and then the wreck of the Clan Mackay torpedoed in World War 1. Visibility was poor at 2-4 meters, but the dive involved catshark, congor eels, and edible crab sightings.

Waking up Seahorse, 18 April 2021
Seahorse, our club boat, stayed out of action for one and a half years for obvious reasons. Before she can go for any sea trips, she and her trailer had to be thoroughly cleaned and inspected. It may not have been a diving day, but we had a pleasure of a little river cruise. No ducks were harmed!

NDAC Chepstow, 17 April 2021
It is sad that car sharing is still not allowed, but this is for a reason. Still, a few of those who can travel alone went to National Diving and Activities Centre to enjoy a nice sunny day. And to do some diving of course.
