Good Luck Rob.
Wouldn't like to go to 50M in the channel myself. Too cold. I did a 50M in Lanzarote. Was superb. I could tell it was getting to my limits though, as i felt a bit euphoric.
Have you done many dives?

Nitrogen Narcosis setting in methinks! 
Nah not done loads...ive just passed my advanced open water in Gildenburg.
Ill be diving on EANx anyway to extend my bottom time as we wanna have nice look around.
Deepest dive ive done so far is 22m so 40m is gonna be different.
It was pitch black at 22m with only 1-2m vis at most!

Definatley the best thing i have ever done.

Why wouldn't I?
I'm used to the luxuries of diving... Cayman Islands Egypt Australia 
Plus the weather in england doesn't make it amazing I'm a Rescue Diver to but i'm spoilt Englands to cold and not enough vision... i like seeing as far as the eye can go

I see, i dont think it was ever going to take off TBH.
Lots of people do it but they arent man enough to admit it, its still a bit 'underground' at the mo.
