Deeper and deeper – HMS Southwold
By Dave Whitlam
OK Sunday morning the sun is shining! Fancy a trip to Southwold?
Yes, I love Southwold is my instant replay! Circa early 1970’s and I am 10 years of age. The small seaside town of Southwold is only 9 miles from my Home town of Lowestoft in sleepy Suffolk England as a boy my father would many a time pack us all in the car and take a day trip to Southwold we would have great adventures playing along the river Blyth whilst dad would sit in a local pub enjoying a fine brew from the towns own brewery Adams (Still going strong today) Happy memoires indeed . read more...

Apologies for the delayed scubaworksmalta.com dive reports… We have been diving, honest occifer!
It gets a tad busy in the peak season (allegedly & apparently) – my excuse and I am going to stick to it.
A very good report was submitted and approved by the scubaworksmalta.com team, for Le Polynesien which was dived on Sunday 1 August.A World Class Dive, one of many in the waters around the Maltese Islands.
Blimey where has 2010 gone? read more...

By Mark Dove (MAD)
Last Sunday was hardcore. Last Sunday was for boys and their toys.
Last Sunday we dived the wreck of Le Polynesien, and nearly all of us came back to tell the tale.
Our story begins, dear reader, at a very civilized time of 9:45, by which time some less laid-back divers have already done their first dive and are necking back Kinnie and pea-cakes. We had other plans, and they called for taking more cylinders than you can shake a stick at, down to the Deep South (or Marsascala as it is also known), a dangerous trek of at least 20km on Maltese roads (here be potholes).
Once at the jetty, and having waited for the navigationally challenged to join us, the boys proceeded to bring out their toys. Before long I was suffering severe cylinder envy – I had only brought two! read more...
