Thanks Rod,
To be honest I wasn't so confident ...... The brilliant way the course is taught and practical lessons we were put through though made it all click into place and stay stuck into the old noggin once learnt which is a credit to the training given. It's not just about getting you through the exam, it's giving you the knowledge and preparing you to be able to correctly deal with an emergency situation be it your own or in the help of others who may be in danger and to summon the right help quickly and precisely. I really enjoyed the experience and extra confidence it has given me which has spurred me on to gain further skills/knowledge . I hope to take my Day Skipper course next which teaches seamanship skills that anyone considering taking their vessel out to sea should really have under their belt. It surprises me no end that it isn't a legal requirement and that anyone in the U.K. can purchase a sea going vessel and take it out to sea without any training/experience necessary ..........bonkers if you ask me

One of the courses you might consider doing is this one.... http://www.rya.org.uk/courses-traini...first-aid.aspx Covers first aid, CPR, treatment of hypothermia, helicopter rescue and what to say to the emergency services over the radio - which you already have. Over the years through work, I had to perform CPR on adults and children. It requires skill and strength. It's emotionally draining but it's worth knowing what to do when someone is down and it's double hard in the community. |

Good morning all and welcome to the day Hot yesterday at 31C and the forecast for this afternoon is 30C and it looks as though some of it is coming your way. I saw on Sky news this morning the forecast for UK Monday is 16C. A bright start for BST, staying light until 7pm
