Completed OW course! and got...

[Mike7]

After about 7 weeks (a lesson a week) I finally ended my course last weekend. We had a great time and was pretty hot for the UK, 25c land and 16c under so even when my dry suit flooded on the first dive :11: I was still alright. The only problem was I got finners feet.

I've already booked my next course, National Geographic, to get some practise in before I go on holiday to Turkey but I'll be in the pool nearly every week before I go too (doing my advance course out there) so its all go from now on!

Before I even started my course I was doing alot of snorkelling and that helped me and also checking out this forum here helped a good deal also.

Cya in the water,
Mike

Out of interest where on earth did you find in the UK that has a water temperature of 16c ?!

We're still pushing 13c here in the sea and only normally expect 16 at the very most at the end of september.
