Same everywhere...  I think I might be a bit like that for a while... ;)
 DS> I assume that you must live in Autralia from the school reference.
Nope!  England actually - *cold* water!! 
 DS> Whereabouts do you live and what's the local diving like.

(quite close) ...at least that's where the instructor's planning on taking
