Extract Text (Duration00.41)

You had to fill out a dive log, every time you went down you had to fill out a comprehensive dive log of where you worked, what you did, any artefacts you brought up or if you raised them and you put them in the basket waiting to come up.  And then in the hold of Sleipner there were a couple of guys who were doing the conservation, so quite often in between dives I would pop down and have a chat with them and say, "Did you see such and such that I brought up?  What do you think that is?"  And so there was really fun, because everybody was learning at the same time, but, yeah, it was... oh, what a wealth of items there.  Really, really exciting.
