Memories from Laura (Byatt) Hogg Wow … one favourite memory? No, many! – making ice cream on the beach on the Western Islands for a formal dinner – or perhaps baking bread there another year – dodging rocks being thrown overboard by the dive boat skipper at Tobermory – feeding hot dogs to the fish in the Moon River at Bala – John seeing a huge fish (really – it was that big!) on a drift dive – scrambling onto our ice floe in the Ottonabee River as we ran over a navigation marker – John’s Dad’s Volkswagen bus – Gain’s tea eggs – dutifully writing up yet another dive log entry “wreck somewhat broken up” – doff and don in the HH pool – walking my bike up the St Clair hill after doff and don in the HH pool – Gerry and Joel’s Monty Python routines – the stack on the ‘Waome’ emerging out of the gloom as we descended – thermoclines – Francis Fowler – many, many happy weekends – great food, great friends, and even some pretty good dives! We’ll miss you guys. Cheers, Laura Hogg |
