Well, I finally got there and finished the course - and got certified (insane..someone said!). It wasn`t as bad as I thought it would be...I just got nervous for nothing. We did the four rescue scenarios and had a DM-C as a dummy....oh and the instructor didn't even take the EAP!
I`ve written a bit up on my blog (see link below) if you want to see...as I`m not repeating myself on here.
It was such an exhausting day - we were in the water from 9.30am until 3.30pm (and an hour for lunch)...i was soo tired I went to sleep at 7PM!!!
it was definitely a worthwhile course, it`ll definitely make me think more when I next go diving (monday, in fact) about the other divers in the group.

Congrats! Hope you had a good time!

Didn't we tell you so? Congrats, and it is not just looking at the other diver, you now have the skill to judge yourself as well...

Congratulations:) :) :) :)

yes, that is true also.....the course makes you a better diver and more aware of whats going on around you as well....
There was this other diver doing a shore dive with a DM and the DM was talking to another staff member and not lookng at the diver. I saw that the diver was just starting to panic just a few seconds before the DM shouted at him to 'inflate your BC', which thankfully he did..and I did ask him if he was okay. But if i hadn't have started this course, i probably wouldn't have looked at this diver in the same way as i did yesterday and just dismissed it.
ok i'm gabbling again ;)
