Well after Paul had done a bit of arm twisting we finally had four divers and Helen as a boat-handler. 

We met at the boathouse at 6 in the morning and after two minor diversions by Paul, (his new Sat Nav isn’t all it’s cracked up to be), we finally arrived at Porth Colmon down on the Lleyn in North Wales.
