:kiss2:Thanks for the edit:kiss2:

Hmm... Oak Park.... honestly don't remember seeing a lot there when we have dived it. Blue devil tho.... that would be worth looking for!

:blinking:Glad you got wet tho.... any dive you get wet and come back from is pretty good in my opinion....(Long Bay excepted of course)

Looking forward to the pics.

:shocked2:I may stay with this method now that I have figured out how to add comments. benefit is... people don't have to look at them if they don't want to... if they want they can click on them to enlarge them I don't get the quality of shots Almity1 does!

OUTSTANDING!!!! fantastic how you put it all together and LOVE the music choices.... who is the guy singing the scuba songs?? remind me to give you a copy of ScubaTunes if you dont already have one

you need to do a workshop becasue i have no idea how to put music to my stuff!!!

hubby has dvd envy so he may be asking you questions

brings back alot of GREAT memories :bounce2:

*sigh* we really have to go back next year!!

:blush:awww shucks:blush: Still working on one with comments It'll be better yet it takes some time but I think a trip like that is worth the effort to preserve the memories! I didn't have space for all the shots. I did something similar for our Jas Aben... Madang trip.

Yes I would love a copy of ScubaTunes! I want to do one for the Jellybean Rockers so have been looking for appropriate music.

Sas - just remember to volunteer for as much free o2 that you can get

Haha ok. The course was fun, I learned a lot. My favourite bit was doing the different scenarios where we had to diagnose people. Anyway, me and Paul were first up as the 'patients' and got assigned to be a couple that did a normal dive profile but got DCI because they'd been out drinking all night and hadn't drunk much water. Paul was supposed to have the more serious case so did a spectacular faint and I couldn't keep a straight face. Then they started to administer oxygen to him but did turn on the O2 so he had a mask stuck over his face so wasn't getting any oxygen (or any air!) at all and started coughing and carrying on but we thought it was part of the act!

Anyway, I am about done with courses for the time being, was a tiring two weekends. Just have my last Nitrox class on Tuesday and then NO MORE courses. For a while anyway Cavern is the next one I want to do but need a fair few dives more I think!

Sas we don't see the Peuobranchus out very often... I got some shots of one a few years ago while it was in the act of laying its eggs..... at Bare Island... Neville Coleman said he was quite surprised as he hadn't seen them at Bare Island... This one looked black underwater but the last one was more yellow and brown.

Wow cool. I have seen their eggs but not seen them laying them, they are quite pretty the eggs! I have a few pics on Scubaboard actually of them! They are a pretty cool critter

The first one I ever saw, freaked me out a little bit watching this giant slug move across the sand!

One next to my hand for size comparison, about average but they do come much larger

Eggs

Do you have the pics of it laying eggs still handy? I have never seen anything lay eggs yet And I am stuck trying to imagine how the slugs lay the eggs

Sas, here are the shots of the one I got pics of laying eggs in sept 2005 These shots were the ones Neville Coleman used in his column. The one we saw last weekend was way bigger than both my hands could circle.

:shocked2: Cool! I was wondering how they laid them in such nice patterns Thanks for sharing the pics! I hope to catch one laying eggs one day - maybe I should watch them for longer. And find out when their breeding time is!
