Hey all,

I was certified about 12 years ago but have only been diving regularly for the past couple of years. Last year I got in 4 trips--Grand Bahama Island, Marco Island, BVI, and Cozumel. I've an end of April trip booked to Key Largo. I've tried the local dive club trips and find myself a fish out of water java script:emoticon(':banghead:')with all of the couples. I look forward to a trip with this group.

Other interests include tennis, fine dining, fine cooking, reading, woodworking, and weaving. Professionally I'm an organizational psychologist looking to play more!

Glad you dived right in and made yourself at home. Looking forward to diving and meeting with you soon.

There are a lot of knowledgable people on this board, so if you have ANY questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Again, welcome to our home and we hope that you will call this home also.

Hi Sweeper!

Welcome....and you sure hit the nail on the head....diving with a bunch of couples IS exactly like being a fish out of water! :wow:

In fact that is the main reason we started SingleDivers.com...that and to save money for our members! Yep...the only thing that you blow thru faster in this sport then money is the air you breathe diving!! LOL!!

We are really happy that you found us and I just know you'll have a ball diving with us as well as getting to know people via our Surface Interval message board!

Please make yourself at home and feel free to post as often as you like. The more participation...the more welcome others will feel! :fish2:

And THANKS for asking where to send your premier membership fee too!! I'll pm you with all the details!! It means a lot to us that you are joining so soon...the modest fee we charge helps to offset the cost of keeping the board online and supported. Or you might want to consider becoming one of our Charter members...they will help to lead and guide this new diving venture as we grow! :banghead:

I love your signature line...and we all at SingleDivers.com fully intend to reach our dreams....and NOT have excuses about how we didn't!! :D

Welcome aboard....it will be a great ride!! And speaking of great times...how about joining us in Bonaire in June? We have 4 people going so far with several more checking vacation, time off etc. We'd love to have you join us! :twist:

WreckWench,

The Bonaire dives work for me. I'll sign-up in the next couple of weeks!

Btw, I can't get the smilies to work for me. Do they only work with certain browsers? I'm using Safari.

Awesome on joining us for Bonaire!!! :banghead: It is June 13-20 and I guarantee you'll have a blast!! :fish2: Have you checked out all the details under our trip section on the main site? Click on Upcoming Single Trips from www.SingleDivers.com and you'll find info on Bonaire as well as this particular trip.

As for the smilie problem...I'll have our techno smilie guys see why they won't work...as for an interim solution...Bubble2Bubble is right...try typing the code for them and see if that works. If you need a list of them let us know! -ww
