I knew it was coming, and it happened today. I ended up driving the refactoring of the computerised dive tables, we needed to get things back on track and so Paul took the navigator seat and I hammered out the code. In actual fact what Stacey and Alan had created was on the right track but embedded all of the tables inside of a class which was going to get very messy indeed.

I shifted out the tables into a comma separated file and fixed the interface to access it, Paul was quite interested to learn some of the techniques I use although I did get the feeling I lost him in places. Under normal circumstances I would have navigated and let him drive, teaching him the parts he was unsure of but the rest of the user story was held up waiting for this as it is and so this is how we solved it.

There is still more to do but it should provide a base to continue on from.

We also had a meeting with Janet (the Product Owner) in order to resolve a couple of minor discrepancies on our acceptance tests. These were to do with values we had used previously being off slightly.
