We can't wait to see your progression. You're both amazing.
I know you won't mind me mentioning your amazing instructor and mentor, Chris. for all his hard work and professionalism.
Welcome to the pro stellar team.

Three great days with the Stellar family at Capernwray this weekend. The weather on Friday and Saturday was a bit windy and rainy wet, but Sunday was gloriously good.
So where to start with the fantastic achievements in the water.
Let's start with two brothers, Daniel and Brayden, doing their Junior Open Water Course.Breyden found the water temperature a challenge and is coming back another time. Daniel percervered and passed his Junior Open Water. We are all so proud of your amazing achievement. Super well done.
We had a couple of equalisation problems, and I know Eleanor and Seth really wanted to carryon, however it's better to be safe and come back and smash the junior and open water course next time. Well done for getting this far for now.🙂
It was great to see Shane and Emily pass their open water course. Fantastic achievement. Well done, both of you.
It's fantastic to see Derek, Dav/id, and Jack finishing their Full Face Mask Course. Congratulations to you all. And then enjoying some leisure diving. Fantastic fun was had.
It is great to see Anna and Ro'b doing their Dry Suit Course. A great way to stay dry and warm when diving in the UK.
Congratulations, well done.
On the advanced open water course, we have Shane and William. And William is doing his dry suit course at the same time.
Very well done to both of you. 🙂 Congratulations.
On the Rescue course, we have Terry and Jake enjoying one of the best courses you can do. It's hard work but really rewarding. A super achievement, well done to both of you.
It was really great to be able to give the amazing Maz her Divemaster Shirt this weekend. You did a fantastic job this weekend with Daniel.
And then there are two amazing people, Steve Robson and Gary Walker, who need to have a separate post of their own.
So all of the above achievements wouldn't have happened this weekend, without the fantastic intructing from the super professional dive team:
Chris, Ian, Margaret, Phil, Gaz W, Steve S, Claire, Julez, Maz, Alan, Steve R, Gary W.
And we can't forget the great shore boss Cathy with help from Maz and Grace. Doing a super job keeping us all in line. ❤️
It was fantastic to see Martin and Alex doing some fun leisure diving. Lovely to have your great company this weekend.
Thanks to Max for helping out with the rescue course. Hope you have a dry dry suit next time.
It was lovely to see Steve W in the water with his family of Divers.
I'm back home and looking forward to the pool at LSST and LCHS on SaturdaIy. See you all soon.
