It's been a while

Well I've finished the first aid, oil spill, food hygine, oil burner and reverse osmosis (turning sea water into drinking water) training.





I have had two days on a field training course in Derbyshire, what great fun! The weather was great for camping, nothing but sunshine, we did lots of activities such as absailing, jurmaring and orienteering. I must admit, I didn't like going over the crag edge! I found it hard to put my trust in a rope but managed to do it four times in the end. Jumaring is climbing back up the rope using mechanical means, I really banged my knees up doing this and used muscles I didn't realize I had.





Back in Cambridge on Wednesday 24th for another course on fire extinguishers, then off to Plymouth for an advanced first aid course on Monday 29th until the Wednesday 1st, should be interesting this time as we are looking at putting in stitches and intravenous drips among other things! Will write more about the course after it has happened.





Here are some of the photo's that I have been promising, they are in no particular order.





Thanks for the comments, NO I have not got cold feet at the moment (thanks Phil). I'm looking forward to the experience. Keep up the comments as I look forward to reading them.
