Chesil Beach - The Treasurers' Tale
Lowlights:Being woken up at 4am by icebergs and polar bears trying to sink my narrowboat; kitting up in 2 degrees (brrr); losing Steve in zero viz; getting out of the surf the wrong way up; scrabbling up the near-vertical pebble beach in full kit determined not to have to do two journeys; a very damp dry suit; a dead computer; getting dressed (brrr); not being able to wash my kit down for days due to frozen water pipes
Highlights:Meteorite storm (superb shooting stars in a perfectly clear night sky); Alan (no fins) English; finding nudibranchs in zero viz; finding Steve in zero viz; hot beef stew and a pint in the pub; hot tea in the café; that tired but satisfied feeling that comes from doing an exhilarating UK dive; doing a UK dive and not getting blown out!
