A view out over DorotheaThe 4.45am alarm clock was my first rude shock, my inability to find the tins of tomato soup was my second, and then the gentle tap on the door at 5.30am by Stuart was my third.
 
Why are we up at this time was the though going through my head, I remember we are heading to Dorothea for a couple of dives. With my kit loaded in to Stuarts car (and a quick double check), we headed off to collect Martin & Jason. As all the other kit had already gone to Wales with Steve, it was a quick pick up, a change of drivers to Jason, and off we go.

Excalibur Formula One TeamOld MacDonald had a farm, e, i, e, i, o. And on that farm he had a lake, 6 divers, one very cold dive marshal  and Steve in Lucys pink leggings, 2 overflow divers and 5 tractors.
 
This could only be an Excalibur dive trip. Anyway, back to the story, Five tractors I hear you ask, Mikes Idea of an ideal photo opportunity. So it was 8am when Stuart picked me up for the one hours trip to Ellerton. The weather was foul, rain sleat and snow on the windscreen was only the start of it.

Who is this movie star?  What roles have they performed? Are they Bond, Bourne or Bean?

Check out the poster for their up coming block buster 'Right Charlies'.

Would you like ice in that?New Years Day is normally a day when half the country finds it's self laid up in bed nursing a crackin' hang over, however here at Excalibur we do things a little different.

As a dive club that dives all year round it would of been rude not to have taken the opportunity of a day off work to go for a little splash.

Let's get physicalAs mature, responsible thirty some-things, it would be fair to say that spending a Saturday evening snowboarding was.............. right up our street!!

Xscape at Castleford is home to Sno!Zone where such activities take place. (Click here to visit their website for more details) It offers various packages to accompany its many activities but as it was new to Paul, and as my last experience on the snow resulted in a severed leg, we decided a three hour lesson was more than enough for starters!
