Well done, what was the test like at the end. I've got mine in a couple of weeks. What kind of computer is it?

the test was dead-easy, just like the questions in the book - I think only complete morons can flunk the test.
The puter is an Aladin Pro - a bit outdated, but very reliable and it was half price because there's a newer model available.

Wow I'm happy for you ^_^ take some underwater piccies some time!I did, today. I don't think they came out good, it was the first time using that cam and it isn't super user-friendly (but it wasn't exactly expensive either). Anyway, I'll have to wait for the film to develop. Underwater casings for digicams are still so outrageously expensive, and diving is expensive enough for a hobby if you ask me.

have you ever thought about becoming a guide?No, I wouldn't have time to take this hobby that far, I'm perfectly happy just diving every now and then for now.

Coooooooooooll...

I've always wanted to go diving. I don't think I'd have the time, and I don't like water. I like swimming, but after all those times watching fear factor, I would think I'm gonna drown. Good job, btw!
