There's No Place Like Gnome - 17/07/2015

It's a lesser known fact that a small, decorated gnome has sat in the corner of my kitchen for over a year. It seemed wrong. As all divers know, gnomes deserved to be with their own kind. So when Captain Al suggested a trip to Capernwray I reckoned my gnome would like the permanent spot with the pig gnomes.

Unusually, Gill.I.Am was keen to go too adding to an assembled cast that also included Jester.


Our plan was to go down, get to the pig gnomes plant the gnome and head back. It was simple. We headed out passing the plane, helo 1, the podsnap and ou to the gnomes, It was nice to see the Mermaid's trophy still there from the last Scottish invasion. After the gnomes we split up. Gill and I headed to Helo 2, the Candida and up into the shallows. Captain Al and Jester headed off onto the abyss. Although, we emerged from the water at almost exactly the same moment.

A wee lunch and a second dip later and we were heading up the road. The weather had held.
