G'day Strike - out of Falmouth on a hardboat.  The weather was westerly, 5-
6, so we had to stay tight in the lee of the Lizard all weekend, but that
meant there were almost no other divers out, and we had two cracking dives
on the Volnay (familiar? :-))

- the viz was almost as good as a bad day at Shelly - and we left all the
unexploded shells well alone! :-)

(as well as the Devonshire and a dreary drift in the channel of Falmouth
Harbour. :-))

Cheers,
Huw
