Hey welcome to the madhouse.

I'm sure after the Cape and Guildy you'll love the Red Sea, sounds like you're trying to get some dives in before, good idea.

Remember your training, your buddy sounds like he'll look after you.

You'll have a ball. By all accounts Oonas are a great outfit as well.

Get stuck in.

Sorry to here about the torch btw.

Best

So assuming I pass AOW, will I be fine in Egypt? Is this how ppl normally get started? I've read that if you can cut it in the UK, you should be fine abroad in the warm blue stuff
Welcome to the board. You'll have wonderful time in Egypt. I assure you.

Welcome to the board After you've been to the red sea, you'll love diving in warm, clear blue water. I know I did after learning in Tenerife. don't let that put you off from diving in the sea back here though. I would strongly suggest you join a uk club as soon as possible when you grt back and get either a local orientation course or a couple of guided dives in the sea. Explain to them you haven't dived in the sea back here yet and they'll look after you.

Enjoy the board and enjoy your diving

Hi & Welcome To The House of Fun
We met once at Capers when I was buddying Gazzabish whilst you were finishing your OW. Nice to see you finally got around to joining us on YD
ENJOY

Welcome to YD 'typical newbie' (define please!!!). I notice your big bro and I are more or less neighbours but of course he being PADI (I assume) and me being BSAC we are not aware of one another - shame!
