It's something I tried to do when I was 20 something (we ended up not diving since the wind was too strong but went through all the training) Then I learned to fear heights!

I take it you've told the school you're emigrating?
Yeah they know they even give her a little party before she left - however she does'nt get off lightly. Ive bought books, we are making her read everynight and we are going swimming a couple of times a week (PE lesson!) off now to buy a new cozzie as the one i wore the other day is thread bare - i hope to god it was'nt like that on Tuesday in the pool the lifegauds must have thought the moon was out

Re: January 08 Applicants

Still feeling home sick but with all thats happened the last few weeks making us think more about whats important to our family so we are undecided on what to do long term just taking each day as it comes now and next stop NZ then who knows
Australia is lovely and so much to offer there is lots good here and some bad but family verses good weather and out side life my mind is undecided LOL

having a new buba is hard work at the best of times and your doing it in a new country with other kids and no family/friends to help out, I doubt you'd be human if you weren't knackered and questioning yourself, just get past the first few months and then take stock. Don't feel bad for feeling bad! The decisions you made when you had a good nights sleep and were thinking clearly were probably the right ones Feel free to PM me if you ever fancy a moan!
I'm quite good at moaning myself!Lindsay x
ps you better wait for us to arrive I doubt theres another family that might be prepared to share babysitting with us!

You have to remember no matter how much practice you've had having a new buba is hard work at the best of times and your doing it in a new country with other kids and no family/friends to help out, I doubt you'd be human if you weren't knackered and questioning yourself, just get past the first few months and then take stock.
