December 20th Weekend

updated_002.gif  Update: Tuesday 22nd December 2009

Having stolen a great dive from the weather in Hook Head last Sunday the weather forecast for this weekend is not suitable for diving. We will however organise some hill walking over the holiday with all family & friends welcome. I will update this page with details later in the week & txt those that are on the hill walking txt list. Looking forward to seeing you all at Digby Bridge at 11.30am on New Years Day for the first snorkel and back to Sallins for lunch & drinks afterwards.
