    Gildy

    Does anyone fancy a weekend dive at Gildy any time soon(ish)?

    Ken Sullivan was telling me how to find the lillies and so i fancy giving them a go (along with the normal pike shots).

    Daniel,
    Aren't lillies seasonal? They were there when we dived in 2008 and looked as if they were dying:



    Got my drysuit back, got my regs serviced, just waiting for the housing to return from Ikelite.

    I wouldn't guarantee pike and carp but at least I know where they tend to hide at Gildy. We couldn't see any less than we did at Wraysbury! You just then need to talk your regs into leaving some air in the cylinder for you.

    If you fancy a dip then let me know when you are free.

    Daniel,

    I am up for a splash, haven't been in since Scapa so need to get some water time in soon.

    Available Saturday and Sundays from now to Easter except 28th March and 21st April.
    All the best

    Excellent Gordon, it will be good to see you again. I was only thinking the other day that I had not seen you for a while. Do you have any preference for a date?
