Over 100 people turned up to the Monty Halls presentation at the Royal Beach Hotel last night - a sell out. The event was initially organized for the club and we then decided to invite the other dive clubs in the area so there were also members from Portsmouth East, Portsmouth West, Southsea and Cockleshell Divers. PADI and BSAC divers all crossing over to the dark side for this fun event. Monty talked about his second series of Great Ocean Adventures providing some hilarious anecdotes and unseen footage. He talked for just over an hour and managed to sign off some of his books before we all sat down to Steak and Ale pie. It is the first time that so many clubs in the area have got together and on the strength of it, will not be the last. The event also raised £500 which we donated to the Scuba Trust at Monty's reqeust. Many thanks to everyone for supporting the event - we hope to see you again soon.
