On our way to Scapa Flow

by admin on Sep.18, 2009, under Diving

Well, that’s most of the driving done! 600+ miles covered today to get us to Inverness.  We had a two hour stop in Manchester to pick up Robs deco stage and some new fins, Rob also bought a reel while I had to get a SMB to replace the one I lost with my old Kent reel off of Portland :(   No other major delays though.

The car has averaged 52.3mpg so far.  Not bad!  Especially with all the weight it’s carrying, two sets of twin 12′s, a set of twin 7′s, two stages and all our kit.  We sat at around 80mph most of the way.

Our room at the Travelodge seems to be an exact clone of last ears room, even though we’re in a different building.  Rob has taken the sofa bed again and if he snores I’m going to kill him in his sleep.

We were going to go out but it’s been a long day so we’ve ordered a pizza in.  going to have a early night as we need to leave here at 7am so we cab get to Gills Bay for 9:30 and give my old twin 7′s to their new owner.
