Bicester Divers

2008 was not a great year for club dives, with many having to be cancelled or rescheduled due to poor weather conditions. Hopefully the gods will be good to us in 2009 and bring sunshine and flat calm seas. A provisional list of dives for 2009 has now been drawn up.>

Our thanks to all the trip organisers for their hard work.

The trip was almost off, with the Saturday having to be cancelled due to a forecast wind force of 6 to 7. Just a bit choppy for even the rufty tufty divers!

For the Sunday, 9 divers made it - Colin Murray, Anoushka Clark-Dunn, Sharky Ward, Peter Choppen, Rod Hogg, Simon Robins, Cathy & Steve Prior, and Geoff Vernon

We dived the Flag Theofano and the Landing Craft. More details on the dives below the story.

Colin 'Smiler' Murray – cheering everyone up with his grin!

The competition to design a new club logo is now closed. We would like to thank all those that took time to submit their entries. After much deliberation a winner has been chosen.

New merchandise will soon be available. If any club member would like to pre-oder t-shirts, polo shirts etc. please submit your request Steve at the dive club.

After many hours of development and learning, the new Bicester Divers website is launched.

The new website has been developed using a content management framework that will eventually allow the club members to contribute directly to the site. Whilst the site is still need of further development it is, I believe worthy for public use.
