An interview with Elaine, a highly skilled diver about diving post lockdown in UK waters. The management of transport, staying somewhere with others joining the dive, naming fish, and more. There is - in episode 16  - a superb addendum to Elaine's story - all about birds that dive (and no, I am not talking E London vernacular).

A great in-law story, followed by some comments on two books (review is too strong a description); a delightful musical interlude and then some commentary on planning. 

Well: the longest episode yet.  An update of treatment; an interview about meeting in-laws for the first time, three musical uploads (all thankfully very short) and a view or two on a  book I am reading. There's also an occasional background noise of a child enjoying the outdoors - and why not?!!
