Never too old to start new hobbies!

1st year having a crack at diving, put it off for so many years and made alot of excuses. Anyone out there on the same path i say just walk in and book the course! You'll never regret it. Cheers for watching Legends.

 have you tried recently mate? My ears used to give me hell and was always told never to scuba, though i equalise my ears 100 times plus a day or so leading up to a dive and don't have any dramas now. Shore dives also seem to help as its a slow and steady decline.
