Bugger. I'll be on my 4th week in the Maldives then.....

Of course, I could nip back.

Err, yes, it's a no.

But on a more serious note, viz is quite likely to be a bit poo at
that time. Unless you're with me, in which case it will be in excess
of 30m in any direction.

Hmm don't think the maldives is quite in my budget for a weekends diving!
Thanks for the info about the viz, I wasn't sure if I was going to be early
enough to not have any plankton. No one has show any interest yet so I
suspect it's not going to happen anyway.

It's not plankton, it's rivers carrying clay out into the english
channel, powered by winter rain.

Yeah, if you want to go somewhere at that time of the year, I'd go a lot
further west, like south Devon.

Sadly Sussex diving sucks at that time of year most years.

The river Arun to be precise, which in winter
can be browner than oxtail soup, as it is fed
from the Wealden clay areas.
