@monicac Hi Monica it certainly was very tiny

[Olwynne]

Ah. So cute. I have seen a small one before when we went scuba diving for the very first time. That was the point when I realised I wasn't concentrating on my breathing,panicked and surfaced rather quickly! Luckily we weren't deep enough to matter!

[Dawn]

@ollyfran Thanking you Olwynne, I saw bigger ones when diving oh so many years ago , yes you were lucky you weren’t deep 😊
