Hi Mark

no the course was a PSA CCR coursefor the Inspro. The idea was that
I was interested in, but not convinced about, the CCR route on the Meg or Inspiration. So Before I forked out the dosh for either I organised to do the inspro course with Andy H on a borrowed unit. Partly to see if closed circuit was a good idea etc etc. I am a fairly late convert to the dark side, smile and I was'nt sure if it was going to be for me!

Simon Lawrence (gadget) and Andy both gave me a good look at the Meg at the same time as doing the Inspro course, and I borrowed Andy H's Meg after the course to try it out, diving with Simon.

I had some good help and advice also from Dave Cooper and from here via Mark Chase, who kindly took the time to give me his thoughts on the units etc.

So the end result was an Inspro ticket and I shall dive on a borrowed inspro for a while until Mrs Price has had the baby and things are stable here again!
( I am 46 my youngest is 19)
At that point I think I will order a Meg and do a full Meg course.
I did exactly the same thing (without the baby thing) and I am quite happy I did it that way. I liked the inspo and would happily dive one but for travelling and flexibilty I still prefer the meg.
