And Breathe

The Gorse Fox had a few pressing chores to complete this morning but once that was done and lunch (a thick lentil and bacon soup) consumed he whizzed round to the station to get his ticket for the week and then settled down with his PADI Open Water Diver manual and videos for an afternoon of study.

What was heartening was that most of the “science” was basic physics that he learned in school – the new stuff was more in the area of the equipment and how it is set up and used. However, it didn’t seem too complicated and he assumes that a lot of it is a matter of good practice, confidence, and inner calm. (And remembering not to breathe water).

Busy, but short week coming up.
