Seems to me it’s always cold water around the British Isles. BRRRRR...

Yeah. But there's some good diving in Scotland. Scapa Floe up in the Orkneys- they had captured a lot of German warships during the war there. The German commander ordered the ships scuppered and there they are in shallow water. Cold water diving isn't so bad when you're wearing a dry suit (which is what the wife's doing) and hood, but I just can't get motivated about going into the cold water ;-)

Are you a Scot who likes baseball, or an American in exile?
