My Mate Raggy


Wow.

Diving was amazing. Slid off this great big ribbed dinghy, sank and equalized and then the first thing that comes into view before I even saw the bottom was a ragged-toothed shark.

There was about twelve of us in the group so it was a bit more crowded than I'm used to (mind your mask type stuff), but I was glad as there seemed to be more sharks lurking around.

Actually, ragged-toothed sharks are mostly harmless, and the old saying about sharks applies: if you don't act like food...

The visibilty was pretty good (15-20m) and there was the usual brace of morays, starfish, the coloured things, the brightly coloured things and the duller things too.

Fruitus Maximus (the Old Fruit) and me are driving off into the wilderness today for a couple of days, so I'm guessing there be no interweb there so the blog'll be quiet for the next few days.

Apparently it's really quite spectacular where we're going, so hopefully should have some nice photos for you when I get back.

A few personal messages for you lot:

Phil - How you getting on with Live?
Cath - You'd love the food here.
Monty - Flat/Sam/Bills ok? .. and is my bike rusty yet?
Cat - where you now?
Cak - Whip that team girl (but don't feed 'em too much).
Martin - She's a lovely girl, go boy!
Everyone else - It's sooo hot here. hehehe
