Founded in May 2009 by Craig Muirhead the Weeknight Wanderers aka Schoolnight Scuba are a bunch of us who dive in response to Craig's proddings that you can read below.

To date the WW have had lots of fun and and many great dives, sometimes making it onto the Branch diary past pages.

A Witter from another Wanderer!!

Weeknight wanderers continued their wanders ‘sans chief wanderer’ on Friday past. Finnart Pier was the lucky victim, with vis at less than 1 metre down to 7 metres, then gloom but >5m vis below that . Dragonets, Scorpion fish, lots of fan worms, squatties, tunicates and soft corals enthralled the visiting Yorkshire divers, who were more used to the rigours of Quarry Diving. An underestimation of sea-loch buoyancy led to their dive being prematurely terminated, however a friendly fisherman fed them tea and fags until the return of the lead diver (separation is a terrible thing L) Saturday saw their numbers increased by another visitor, this time from London, and a dive ensued from Coll at Stallion Rock. High Water led to some navigational challenges ( I couldnae find itL) but soon all 4 divers were gently and comfortably perusing the cliff face ( although one was in a wet-suit). Inter-dive time was spent collecting mussels and Limpets, to accompany the 2 crabs. In moment of madness, I asked John for the car key, only to be met with a surprised and then horrified expression. He had it, it was in his pocket, but the one on the outside of his dry suit! Aforementioned car key had successfully completed a dive to 34 meters, was saturated in salt water, and in time honoured fashion had fused battery and electronics to one soggy mass! However not crying over spilt milk, had a second dive and headed back to the car. The key still worked, but the alarm refused to silence, and obviously no central unlocking! A quick call to Tom Cooper advised that the alarm would reset in time, after seeing that a valid key was in the ignition and the immobiliser was not triggered. And so it was thus J A long (slightly delayed) drive home, for pizza and beer. No dive Sunday due to lazy bodies and return travel arrangements, however it appears that we made the right call travel –wise J Feedback from the visitors was that we have a fantastic country, superb diving, and a club to be proud of ( we hired cylinders and a reg for the weekend)

See you tonight

Weekly Witter

No Wander for me this week gentlefolk...slightly busy with moving house and starting a new job yesterday. I've also got Daddy duty on Friday night as Mummy is off out. Maybe see some of you tonight?

Cheers

"Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead"

Although I had a generous offer from a fellow Wanderer to provide me with a buddy last Friday, I decide to take the Sunday option instead (as diving both days was not a possibility). On balance probably not the right decision. The queue down the side of Loch Lomond on the way home meant it took me an hour and a half to get from Tarbet to Balloch! Available as usual this week if anyone is interested.

Cheers C

P.S. Note the new e-mail address cwmuirhead@gmail.com (if you didn't already know).

P.P.S. I've "streamlined" the mailing list to include only those who've actually bothered to come on a Wander now and then. Others can read what they're missing on the monthly website updates. If you'd like your name added to the mailing list (after reading this on the website) let me know.

alert!

Well even though last week's witter was fairly explicit, and invited only those who could be bothered to dive with us to share our BBQ and banter, we were gate-crashed by an interloper (complete with dodgy tattoo!). This brazen brigand has never even been on a Wander! We managed to capture an image of the interloping vagabond and I've attached it to this message as a warning to you all. He is the one on the right. Also attached are a few less frightening photos of some of the other wildlife on show at our meal and underwater. Those down at St Abbs over the weekend will testify as to how good the diving on the east coast is right now. I'm hoping to enjoy a bit more of it this Friday before the wind changes and ruins it.

Any takers?

"If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”

Despite being conducted on a Saturday, diving this past weekend is being claimed by the Weeknight Wanderers (as it was postponed from Friday afternoon). Some of the proficiency badges earned on the day were:
* Recovery of boat cover from bottom of mooring chain
* Mooring inspection and missing buoy investigation
* Mooring photography and report
* Towing a diver behind a boat
* Laughing while a large crab attempts to amputate buddy's hand

Thank God I'm not a PADI diver otherwise that little lot of specialties would have cost me a fortune! Some of us will be diving this Friday afternoon down the east coast as a wee aperitif before the main courses on Saturday and Sunday aboard the Selkie. There will be post-diving beers and BBQ, and anyone diving with us is welcome to come along (bringing whatever they'd like cooked for themselves of course). A special prize will be available for anyone who can beat the gastronomic delights we'll have on our menu which will include; Kudu, Impala, Blesbok, Kangaroo, Springbok, Ostrich, Venison, and Tiger Prawns from the hot smoker.
There may also be a lobbie or two if we can winkle something out at Dunbar earlier in the day.

Cheers

"Weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless”

Speaking of pointless...I suppose I should ask anyway if anyone wants to dive any evening this week? With only one "proper" Wander since March the phrase "flagellating an expired equine quadruped" comes to mind here but, before I get carried away in the exuberance of my own verbosity, I should simply say instead that I'm about ready to take the hint and stop flogging a horse that appears to have passed away quite some time ago. Wrapping up the Wanderers does of course mean I'll be forced to find buddies via dodgy quasi-technical ScotSAC-bashing online forums, and maybe even by diving from the Pegasus again. Jeezo! How can you guys sleep at night with that on your conscience? On the bright side I was onboard the Pegasus for two dives on Sunday past and no-one tried to kill me this time so it may be worth another roll of the dice in the exciting new diving game of Random Buddy Roulette. Now, on a less facetious tack; wind, tide times, sea-state, etc all look favourable for giving the famed Cathedral a go. Would any of you "divers" be interested in partaking of this iconic dive? Don't worry about the trek around the harbour wall to the entry point with heavy kit; I have an ingenious solution. I also have "foolproof" instructions for finding the fabled arch and I'm told it's free to park at St Abbs in the evenings too, so there's another excuse gone by the board. Heck, I might even give you a lift to St Abbs and back! So... just how easy, while still interesting, do I have to make it before any of you guys e-mail back to say "yes" for a change?? Buy you a pint after the dive perhaps?...shout you a bag of chips even?...or maybe give you the winning lotto numbers for this weekend?...... tell you what, how about I throw in a free holiday to a luxury live-aboard in the Maldives?

"When the well is dry, they know the worth of water”

What's happening gang!? The last time I stayed dry this long I had a burst eardrum! Has no-one told you it's summer? I got more diving done when we were waist deep in snow than I'm getting now. The sad truth is that, by this weekend, I will only have been diving ONCE in the past month! Who would like to dive this Friday (or any other evening this week) and help me end one of the most barren spells I've ever had, or are we all just going to wait for the cold dark winter nights to come round again?

C

"In 2010 a crack diving unit was sent to Strachur by a ScotSAC court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security cafe to the Loch Fyne underground. Today, still wanted by the Committee, they survive as divers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no-one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire...the Weeknight Wanderers!"

The Wanderers' services have been commissioned this week for an urgent rescue mission. Hannibal and the gang will be back in action at a dive site near you soon... "I love it when a plan comes together."

C

“And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.”

Wee fella's 1st birthday on Friday (happy Birthday William! ed.) so no Wandering (again!) for me this week. So much for resumption of normal service.

Cheers

C

“The time to relax is when you don't have time for it.”

Hello again Gentlefolk

I'll be Wandering this Friday evening down the east coast. Not too fussed about the exact site as I enjoy them all so feel free to express a preference. Diving will be shallow so I expect will be nice and bright, with plenty of life on show in the increasing water temperature, and very relaxing allowing a good wee while underwater.

Let me know if you fancy it.

Cheers

C

“A danger foreseen is half avoided”

Diving both days this weekend on MV Little Blue (assuming the new zip on my suit is OK), so attempting to also slip a Wander under the other half's radar would be suicide. Normal service will hopefully resume next week.

P.S. With Gordon on holiday, and Jim with me on the boat trip, there may well be no club shore diving this weekend. There may however be a space or two still left on the boat for those of you who can find a buddy (though don't quote me on that). See http://www.fyne-diving.co.uk for contact details if you are interested in some solstice diving on (almost) the longest days of the year.

Cheers

"Beware the barrenness of a busy life"

Hello again Wanderers, long time no write.

Despite still being up to my eyes in things other than sea water, I will be diving this Friday afternoon/evening down the east coast with Johan, a recent addition to our ranks. Any/all welcome to tag along. We might even be able to offer you a burger from our BBQ if you want to hang around long enough.

See me tonight (or phone/e-mail) for details.

Cheers

Latest news from Wanderer's HQ:-

• East coast shore diving is still a no-no unless you are partial to 1m viz and very short dives.
• Attempting to repair knackered cuff seals with copious quantities of 2-part glue and tape can increase the load on sections of the cuff not previously damaged and cause these areas to split quite badly, thus giving an even greater problem (i.e. leakage) than was initially present.

Anyone seen any divers around here?

After a gruelling weekend of terrible sunshine and awful 20m+ viz, I'm keen to get back to some proper diving this Friday. Last time out a couple of weeks ago we managed two dives and the clocks have changed since then so hopefully it's two all the way now until the end of summer (if we get one). With the light nights now here, and the East Coast hopefully becoming diveable again in the near future, we shouldn't be restricted to diving only on a Friday either. I can re-fill tanks through the week or on Saturday mornings if anyone also plans on diving Sunday too and doesn't have enough spare tanks. I'm sure there are plenty of you just champing at the bit having missed out at the weekend (and the Sunday before when you might just have caught a glimpse of a Cuckoo Ray if you'd been there).

No pool tonight but I'll be at compressor room and pub if anyone wants to discuss.

P.S. There are also spaces on a boat out of Dunbar on Friday for one dive (r.o. 18.00 I think but can check if anyone is interested). I'd be up for it but would need a buddy.

Cheers

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass . . . it's about learning to dance in the rain.

Anyone up for a Wander this week?

Can someone switch the light on please?

Fantastic conditions at the Caves last Friday...cold, dark and zero viz down to about 14m (below this it cleared slightly to give 3-4m with torches). The wee river running across the road where we parked should have been a clue I suppose. Either that or the torrent ripping through the access culvert. Attempting to get back to the exit point at the end of the dive following a compass (which had to be held pretty close to the mask to be seen) involved much fumbling and bumping into things until we eventually (and inevitably) got separated. This brought the welcome relief of coming straight up to the surface. Think we'll leave this one until later in the year when there's less water coming cascading down the hillside.

Any takers this week? (not at the Caves though!)


Cheers

C

Hello there sunshine!

The latest Wander on the Friday before last saw those present in and out before it was dark (at a new site discovered by the Wanderers and named INTEL reef). So, now that the scary night dives are over, are any of you big fearties interested in diving this Friday afternoon?

"A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker." - Buddha

C'mon folks, it's time to walk the walk and not just talk the talk.

Civil twilight this Friday doesn't end until 18.10 so we'll soon be back to managing a dive after work on a Friday in daylight (hurray!) With the end of night dives for this winter almost upon us, get in now while you still can.

Cheers

"Winners compare their achievements with their goals, while losers compare their achievements with those of other people”

Diving Friday past at Ardgartan Reef brought the usual array of sea-life for the site (including the ubiquitous congers), as well as the odd one or two I hadn't seen here before including a large specimen of Homarus gammarus. Viz for the most part was better than expected and the cold had only just started to gnaw it's way through my gloves by the time we were getting out of the water, where we were greeted at the mirror-like surface by the luminous spectacle of a radiant glowing full moon just peeping over the hilltops at the head of the loch. A real cracker of a night to be out. The dive also brought a trio of achievements; congratulations go to Andy Smith for reaching his century, and to both Dave Davies and Derry Mathie on their first night dives.  All-in-all a highly enjoyable evening rounded off with a celebratory pint in the Village Inn where all four of us confessed to feeling a definite post-dive high. Cheers lads.

Possible Wander this Friday for anyone interested (assuming my runny nose and sneezing don't manifest into something more congestive). As usual see me tonight if you fancy it.

Cheers

C

Cyclopterus lumpus

Last Friday's Wanderers were lucky enough to share some of the dive with a very striking and unusual wee beastie (for Finnart at least!)...a Lumpsucker.  I'm told these shy creatures are normally found in much deeper water. This brightly coloured wee chappie stayed around for a while and made what would have been an otherwise cold and uneventful dive well worth the effort. Keep your eyes open for a photo on the next website update.

Glad to see that others have finally decided to pull their weight and arrange a wee Wander by themselves. Messers Macrae and Mathie are diving this Thursday afternoon (and I'm sure would be happy to have any other interested and available Wanderers join them). I only hope one of them remembers to tell the BDO of their plans as we all know what happens otherwise!! I've still got the bruises!

For those not able to attend Thursday (or just super keen and happy to dive two days in a row) I'm hoping for a dive on Friday evening as usual. So far it's me and Andy S and will likely be Conger Alley (aka Ardgarten Reef) in Loch Long followed by chips at Balloch on the way home.

Cheers

C

"Character is what you are in the dark"

No wander for me this week as a night dive without a decent torch is a bit of a stretch even for my insatiable diving appetite. Thankfully Sunday’s two dives have taken the edge off my cravings, otherwise I’d have been tempted to just go anyway and use my wee focus torch as a main light (and eat plenty of carrots between now and Friday).

Cheers

C

To try something and fail is better than to try nothing and succeed...

At extreme risk of being foolish, having no common sense, and placing an unnecessary burden on the emergency services who will struggle to cope when things go wrong....would anyone be interested in perhaps wanting to maybe perhaps have a wee think about maybe even just discussing a possible Wander this Friday perhaps, maybe?

I know it's a radical idea but please don't all bite my head off at once. I don't think even my almost unlimited enthusiasm could take it. A simple "yes", "no" or even just no reply will suffice. If you really must take me to task for having the temerity, the audacity, the gall, the impudence to even think about such folly, please see me at the pool/pub tonight where I will at least have the protection of a stout hardback rammed down the back of my jeans.

Last of the year?

Weather/surf forecast for this Friday looks like being very calm. A final Wander of 2009 beckons. East coast could be a distinct possibility. A wee dip at Green Ends perchance?

Cheers

C

This week's Wander...

Date: 04/12/09
Time: 19.30 until late
Venue: The Fairway Hotel, Bathgate
Plan: Enter venue at large rectangular opening, navigate carefully to the long wooden reef, dive down into pocket (if it's your round), sink inebriating liquid to induce narcosis, repeat process until tissues are saturated.

Cheers!

Quotes are nothing but inspiration for the uninspired

Lesson's from last Friday's night-time wander at Finnart, Loch Long:-

• Always check your camera BEFORE starting the dive as it's very difficult to clear fog on the inside of the housing when underwater.
• The heat from a 50W xenophot torch bulb, even when pressed against the housing port for prolonged periods, doesn't really help clear the fog either.
• It's very difficult to see where you're going on a night dive if attempting to use your torch to de-mist your camera housing.

• It is possible to collect scallops and tow an inflatable Tennents Lager can at the same time.
• It is not possible to collect scallops and still navigate effectively in a moderate current to pass dive leader assessment at the same time.

Superstition is the religion of feeble minds

No Wandering for me this week as it's Friday the 13th and I'm a superstitious feartie (or maybe it's because I'm already committed Saturday (SSAC conference) and Sunday (diving from MV Scimitar) and her indoors would be distinctly miffed if I chanced a Friday frolic as well).

Last week's Wander was at Conger Alley and, as it was well past both civil and nautical twilight by the time we entered the water, it has been chalked up as a successful nightdive in my book.

The intrepid team of adventurous souls (Jim A, Andy S, David S and me) all made it in and out alive and despite a slightly delayed start, less life than expected, poorish viz, a strange downcurrent near the top of the reef, the annoying rain when packing up, and the best part of the night being the excellent chips at the Lomond Fish Bar in Balloch, it was still an enjoyable experience. For the remainder of the winter however I'm inclined to be a bit more choosy weather-wise as it's hard enough dealing with the extra difficulties of night-diving without the additional hindrances of rain, wind, cold etc. Regular weekly Wanders for me therefore will probably be curtailed until the sun comes back over the equator. I intend to pick and choose my nights based around weather and sea conditions. I will continue with the weekly witter just to keep things ticking over, but it will more often than not be to say I'm going to the pub instead.

Cheers

The only thing that stops God from sending another flood is that the first one was useless.

The planned nightdive last Friday went the same way as the planned daydives on Sunday, and was postponed due to us all being underwater anyway without the hassle of a drive to the coast. I stayed home and built an Ark instead.

Looking on the bright side, the drive to divesites in the future will be much shorter if it keeps raining like it has as the sea will be practically on our doorsteps. On an even brighter note the waters around Scotland will become a tropical paradise and we won't have to haul ourselves to the Red Sea or the Maldives (aka the next Atlantis) for some warm water diving. And who said global warming was a disaster? Get all those lights on now and let's make St Abbs the new Sharm!

More good news is that those of you who couldn't manage last week still have the chance to be part of the Wanderers first nightdive. Early surf/weather indications suggest an east coast trip could be a possibility this Friday. Who wants to be part of history in the making (before the Big Man decides to have another go anyway)?

Cheers

C

Charge those torches, dust off your sense of adventure, and blow away those clock changing blues!

The moment you've all been waiting for has finally arrived, as this week will hopefully bring the inaugural Weeknight Wanderers Nightdive.

Last Friday's dive at Finnart was perfect prep as again it was fairly dark and a wee tad spooky. Terrific fun. An even bigger thrill than "ordinary" daylight dives and some of the more timid creatures venture out into the open under the cover of darkness. Thanks to buddies Andy S and Dave D.

I'm sure I'll be inundated with offers for a buddy for this special event so apply early to avoid disappointment.  Site yet to be chosen and if you have a preference get in now with your suggestion. East coast looks likely to be out again so only west coast sites with easy entry and simple nav should be considered. Maybe something like Conger Alley or any of the usual spots down the east side of Loch Fyne.

Don't all rush at once now...

Cheers

C

"Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of man go together."

A highly enjoyable dive for the Wanderers last Friday at Finnart. Very dark - blacker than black at the bottom of the pier legs; but strangely this made it an even better, "atmospheric", dive.
Plenty of life around  with Yarrell's blenny, butterfish, dogfish, dragonet, small scorpionfish, loads of dogwhelks (and egg masses), anemones of various types, peacock worms, the ubiquitous squatties, velvets, urchins and numerous other echinoderms.

Also one very obliging hermit crab which sat patiently for it's portrait while I tried to get to grips with my camera kit.

Thanks to Jim A once again for the intro to what was a new site for me.

This Friday could well be the last daylight Wander this year. Any takers? Any suggestions for a site?

Cheers

"The wind and the waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators"

The title of this week's witter could easily have been "people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones".

After my last midweek mumble about not getting lost, and the dangers of using "error learning" as a method of self improvement, what happens? Sod's Law I suppose. It is reassuring to know however that I haven't lost my touch and can still show others a thing or two when it comes to getting it wrong.

...and here's me thinking the trajectory of my learning curve was starting to move off the vertical.

Pearls of wisdom discovered on last Friday's dive that I'd like to share with you all are:-

• Trust your compass, but remember to factor-in any leeway from a cross current.
• Never assume that the surface layer of water, when being pushed along quickly by a strong wind, is travelling in the same direction as the current lower down.
• Always take your buddy with you when popping up to have a look where you are, as expecting to be able to find him on the bottom again is overly optimistic!

No wander for me this week as I'm away on the Mary Doune trip on Friday. I'd be thrilled to hear that some of you managed to get a dive in my absence though...

Cheers

C

"Sometimes a wrong turn can take you in the right direction..."

"Good taste is the excuse I've always given for leading such a bad life..."

Last Friday's dive at Dunbar was fairly enjoyable for three of the four Wanderers who went along. Unfortunately the air in Jim Anderson's tank tasted like a goat's armpit and his highly developed NO gene kicked in with a wise decision not to dive. All tanks filled from club compressor in the last couple of weeks should be checked before using.

This Friday's diving was provisionally planned on the drive home from Sunday's outing at Dunollie, and was intended to be east coast again with Green Ends the prime candidate as Dave D has yet to experience the pleasure. The forecast however is for the wind, albeit very light, to have some north and/or east in it all week. We'll keep an eye on the webcams down St. Abbs/Coldingham way as the memory of what happened last time I decided to ignore the signs is still quite fresh. Options for west coast are limited only by distance people are willing to travel for just one dive. Suggestions?

Cheers

C

"Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

Here's a cheery thought for you...we're now losing the light in the evenings at the maximum rate.

Currently it's around 3 minutes per night (20 minutes per week) and it's only 7 weeks until the clocks go back. I reckon the latest we could safely be getting out of the water this Friday and still be able to see what we're doing is 7.40pm. That means next Friday it's 7.20, 7 the one after and so on. By my calculations this would make 16th Oct the last Friday we could realistically manage a dive after work in daylight.

So with the sun on the steepest downward part of the sine wave and travelling away from our hemisphere as fast as it can (yes I realise it's us moving and not the sun but you get my drift) there are only a potential 6 more daylight wanders left (weather permitting). Wouldn't it be a good idea then to find a couple of hours for a wee evening dive? I'll certainly be doing my best to be out every week (except Friday 2nd Oct as I'm away on the Mary Doune) and would like as many buddies as possible.

Now for the good news...the weather this week is forecast to improve significantly after today's rain and high winds, and Friday should be warm, clam and perfect for some late summer diving.

Who's up for it?

“He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.” Friedrich Nietzsche

Hello again Weeknighters...Dr Frankenstein here!

What started off as an attempt to spark some life into something has become a monster (any smart remarks about the new arrival will be passed directly to his mother...you have been warned).

I am of course talking about the Wanderers. I choked on my porage this morning when I saw this month's WLSAC website update. For those who haven’t yet noticed, the Webmaster has very kindly seen fit to include us on the branch website. Once I recovered from the shock I realised this newly ordained legitimacy can only be a good thing. The more people know about our activities the more might join in. As you’ll see so far it's just my inane ramblings but I’m sure the Webmaster would be happy to accept contributions, words and/or pics, from anyone. I should also stress again that this is NOT, and was never intended to be, a one-man show (although it sure feels like it at the moment) so any help would be welcome.

Despite finally getting my eagerly awaited lottery win at the weekend, those chancers among you holding off until I buy the boat before deciding to come diving with me will have to wait a bit longer I'm afraid as the big win has already been spent. Most of it went on booze, women, and fast cars...the rest I just squandered (amazing how far ten quid goes).

Thanks to Jim A for stepping up yet again for buddy duty last week. The man deserves a medal. Isn't it about time some of the rest of you made it on a Wander before the summer has gone completely?

Last Friday's dive was at Lephinchapel as our intended site at Finnart was looking a bit brown and murky due to the run-off from the hills. As it happened Lephinchapel was also a bit brown and murky! Viz practically nil in upper few metres but cleared below this to give 5m(ish) and a weird yellowy/browny taint to the water (like diving in weak tea). This made for a fairly dark but unusual and enjoyable sepia-toned dive. Good prep for forthcoming night dives (watch this space...)

Usual script this week; probably Friday (although I'd be available before that if it suited anyone), and happy to go anywhere.

Cheers

C

P.S. Now that this thing has gone beyond a simple weekly e-mail and crossed into the public domain, I should maybe mention for the benefit of those not on the mailing list and reading this on the website that we're a small but keen and hardy band of WLSAC members who try to manage a dive each week in the evenings (usually a Friday). I'm sure there must be more members out there on the fringes of the branch who can't/don't want to dive on a Sunday, but could perhaps fit in an evening session occasionally? To expect Gordon and the team (who already give more than enough of their time and effort) to also cajole people into weeknight diving as well as organise the Sunday trips is a bit much to ask, but as I was desperate for a weeknight buddy or two I decided to ask around the branch. Although we now have a pool of about 11, most weeks there's usually only 3 or 4 who can make it (and a few who have never showed up). Anyone within the branch is welcome to join us but, as there may not always be willing instructors available, I'm afraid it's qualified divers only. Also, any newly qualified or long term inactive divers should obtain the BDO's permission as his approval is required for ScotSAC insurance (and it's good manners).

If you're interested drop me an e-mail (cm@lgeprocess.com) or better still come along on a Tuesday night and buy me a beer. I'll add your name to the mailing list and you can pick and choose what suits.

If you have any corrections, comments or suggestions e-mail us.
