Friday 9 April

A dive, for some, at Lochside Cottages on Loch Leven on a calm afternoon and after fish suppers in Mallaig we headed across to Doune on a calm and peaceful sea.

After diving we sat out by the shore before adjourning to the award winning Doune Dining Room for another super meal.

Dive 1 - Bodan Seamus, Rhum.

This previously undived pinnacle was the highlight of the weekend. Fabulous visibility and an astonishing variety and quantity of life.

Once again we had a wonderful time thanks to all at Doune, particularly Skipper Andy Tibbets and the MV Mary Doune - the damn best boat in the trade, and if Dougie was here he would say so himself.
