A lie-in was the order of the day after we were kept up til the small hours by some very bad karaoke and the So Solid Crew (it was difficult to distinguish which was which). So after being woken at around 11.20 by Pat (in all my life I don't think he's ever woken me up...) we went for an early lunch. We then decided to go out on Pat's boat and joined his group (kind of) for a couple of fairly shallow dives just to get back in the water and to take a few photos.

This we duly did, snapping some great bannerfish and a really neat little gobie who poked his head out of the sand just for the photo. On the second dive the weather turned (again) and we were tossed about on the surface when returning to the boat - worse than yesterday in fact. We held onto the buoy line for dear life (!) and eventually made it onto the boat. The main problem was that the waves were causing the steps at the back of the boat to lift completely out of the water and then come crashing down moments later...didn't particularly want to get too close to that. Once back on the boat a few people saw their lunch for the second time (not us - oh no we're way too hardy for that...) on the way back.

Tonight is the end of the football season (although the FA Cup final is next weekend...we're flying to Aus at the time...d'oh!) so we'll probably end up somewhere cheering for someone...not sure where ort who yet though. Pat isn't back in the water nutil late tomorrow and we're planning our last beach/lazy day for a while so we may have a few beers tonight.
