Ahhh weekday diving...accept for the idiot with 6 fishing pole fishing off the Rotunda stairs with me in the water - he was so self-centred and I was in the way. Yes I gave him an ear-full. Again it was great to see Murphydoris cobbi out and about. The water was pretty clear today and hardly any current.
