David.....that would be a very interesting look you would have going on there if you only wear the bottom half of a wet suit. I can just picture you wearing shorts and a t shirt, the top half looking all gorgeous and bronzed, and then I spot the milk bottle white legs!![sm=speechless-smiley-040.gif] Only joking!
I wrote I should get the TOP half! For serious reasons. I got a tad of skin damage on my back this year.
Would love to swim with seals, then. They are around. I heard you can be with them sometimes off the isle of Lundy in the Bristol Channel for example.
Crisps ... I'm imagining a Gary Linecker ad, but underwater?

Hi David
Aaaaahh......now I am seeing white top, and bronzed legs.:D Sorry, it was my misunderstanding about the wet suit. Sorry to hear about the skin damage, hope all is OK now.
With love

Hello... getting back to the Red Sea... I have been to Taba and Sharm el Sheikh and had an AMAZING time! Only been snorkelling but the range of sea life you see is just awesome. Even in the shallow water, all you have to do is look down and there are colourful parrot fish and the like swimming around your legs!
I am going again in 2 weeks, this time to Hurghada to snorkel. I'm not allowed to dive but I want to perfect my snorkelling and go on to do various qualifications in it.
I can't wait 🙂
You are just going to LOVE the Red Sea Serendipity. I'll be thinking of you 😀

Hi Mir,
You just caught my interest. I've snorkelled for years, and of course it's very easy, and you can teach someone just about everything about it, apart from maybe diving and blowing the water out again :Din about half an hour if they aren't afraid of water.
Are there really 'qualifications' in it?? I never heard of this, but if so, what are they are who does them??

Hiya... yeah if you go onto the BSAC website [link= http://www.bsacsnorkelling.co.uk/ ]http://www.bsacsnorkelling.co.uk/[/link]it will tell you all you need to know. The website itself looks a bit pants but it has some good information.
I would like to go as far as I can with it... maybe not all the way to Snorkel Dive Marshal or Insructer as I think that is like a career thing... but I love snorkelling and personally think it is better than diving. I know I haven't tried it but the thought of breathing all those gases doesn't appeal to me. ALso... my other half James' friend from work died last week in a diving accident in Malta 🙁
But that is just my opinion. I can see the attraction tho... seeing all those deep seacreatures and wrecks [sm=busch.gif]
