so JC dug out a reel and tied a line to the anchor and headed out into the slight current at roughly 12 oclock and started a counterclockwise sweep with roughly 100 feet of line out. Of course since we were down under and the water swirls down the toilet the wrong way (they drive on the wrong side of the road here too) we had started our sweep in the wrong direction and the wreck was actually at 3 o clock so we swept 270 degrees before finding the side paddlewheeler.
Luckily, you guys doing this long winded sweep resulted in one of Samir's famous pipefish being caught up and herded onto the line! Embarrassing to admit, but now I have seen one of these creatures of myth and legend!

I only shivered for a couple minutes while on the deco trapeze (that was rigged upsidedown by Samir, must be an aussie thing to do stuff inverted, of course Samir is an Iraqi terrorist but Aussie by Injection)
Everyone else in drysuits (some with weezle extremes under them) and one person in a shorty. Makes you wonder if there's ANY HE in the mix...
I thought the deco station was upside down as a curtousy. Then it would appear right side up for our guests, seeeing as everything else was down under and upsidedown, wrong side of the road and swirling the opposite way.

This evening we had dinner and drinks at the alexendria hotel and met Dr. Mike and SADave, along with Paul, Samir, Fritz, Donal and a few others whose names I either never got or promptly forgot. Dr Simon Mitchell dropped by for a drink also. More sorid details later...
Having to work for 30 seconds, with 3 catwalk models, just too sad. Hope you guys had a nice evening.
But seriously, it's good to have you here!
