Scuba Diving

[Pharmanaut]

Any Scuba diving pharmacists out there?

Its the best way of getting away from customers!

Seriously, if you visit Capernwray, may bump into you from late feb onwards. Will be getting 'skilled up' again for the holiday diving.

I tried it in Egypt, but only to about 30 feet. It was fantastic though, and the Red Sea is brilliant for fish etc.

Pharmacist died some years ago in Bermuda from scuba accident. An old friend of mine was pharmacist at the naval hospital in Gibraltar. Told me the diving was great as the currents had produced many rocky features on the sea bed.

Get as far away from the customers as possible huh? I wouldn't be too surprised if you met one of your regulars down under demanding why it took so long for you to deliver their script!

I love it - very funny! Had me laughing this one Hannah.

Glad it amused you! Given me an idea for a thread.

Try not to do any dispensing down there, especially installment methadone. Effervescent tablets are tricky too.

For Zoggite, Capernwray is a flooded quarry north of Lancaster, max depth 20m.
To make it interesting they have sunk a few boats, old helicopters, shipping containers and some horses from a carousel from a fun fair.

I think they filmed a scene for Emmerdale there a few months ago.
No weighted bodies found yet. Anyone you know missing?

[johnep]

No. but there could be few I would consider nominating!

I've been qualified for about 7 years now, great hobby! I dived Bermuda in 2004 - very easy diving out there and loads to see. Red sea is great but the rise in tourism is ruining the reefs/wrecks. Can't do better than the wrecks of Anglesey on a nice day Happy diving!

Whats the diving like in the caribbean? I've often thought of going on holiday there, but wondered if the sea is any good for diving, and fishing.

I was in Belize in the early eighties, met some divers there who said the reef, second in size to grt barrier, is fantastic. I went on boat trip and we passed near the famous 'blue hole'. Paradise Cay is the resort.

Belize was used as backdrop for the film 'dogs of war'.

Sounds great - I'll check it out on the net and see what the holidays look like.

Thanks John
