Vobster SCUBA Santa, 18 December 2011

A group of intrepid/stupid young divers decided to dress up as Santa and aid Vobster in their mission to raise at least £5000 for the RNLI. Attendees were Fran, Dan, Beccy, Ben, Jonny and Tristan. In all our keenness, and being students, we left Cardiff at 06:00 in order to ensure that we were able to claim a free Fourth [...]

Vobster Quay, Saturday 5th November (Bonfire Night Fundraiser)

After a few weeks of planning, CUSAC sent two waves of divers down to Vobster for some day diving, charity fundraising events, night diving, fireworks and a bonfire put on by Vobster!

Chepstow Quarry, Saturday 29th October

On Saturday the 29th october at the leisurely time of 7:30 we met at the back of the union to head to Chepstow for the first group of this year’s check out dives.

Chepstow Quarry, Saturday 15th October 2011

On Saturday Thanasis had planned for us to go for a fun trip to West Wales, but unfortunately on meeting at Talybont on Friday evening to pack everything up we discovered that indecision (for those of you who don’t know, this is our club RIB) wasn’t happy and didn’t want to start L.  So unfortunately we had to have a change of [...]

Vobster, 13th November

Me, Bryony, G, Jez, and Matt were up bright and early to leave Cardiff for 7. The drive to the quarry was thankfully uneventful and I made sure we taken Andy’s corner with extra special care (I didn’t fancy any of the road features named after me!).
