Scuba Diving

I've been diving now since April '96
It all started as a result of booking our honeymoon in the Maldives and we wondered what there was to do over there whilst on honeymoon... ^_^

We learnt the PADI way and loved the Maldives... so much so, we went back to the same island the next year.
After that I didn't dive until I got back into it in 2000 when I started my Rescue Diver and Divemaster training.
Having seen some appauling instructors I decided to go down the instructor route and attained that certification in 2002.
I got my PADI IDC Staff certification a few years later.
As the PADI schools in Swindon weren't that great, I decieded to join the local BS-AC club.
With this group, my personal diving skills improved and I decided to go down the instructor route with BS-AC so I could give something back to the club.


I've dived in some nice places over the years..
