What to do when home alone.

After you've had your fill of gaming, watching series/movies, surfing the net, etc. get yourself into a routine of cleaning and maintaining your home. This includes gardening!

If you enjoy arts and crafts, set up a space in your home and get cracking!

Fear of heights so parachuting is out. Scuba diving sounds good. Early 40’s not too old to start?

Perfect time - 20 diving years left.

You can go diving in Kuredu (Maldives) while the SO brings home the bacon.

Nice diving locally at Sodwana Bay or Ponta do Ouro.

There are many local dive shops that do training - you will probably end up doing some training dives at Bass Lake, or at Miracle Waters near Brits.

I started with Sandton Scuba, but they have new owners now - but you can try them although there should be someone closer to where you live.

Diving is quite social, so you can go alone, not an issue.

The graphics are amazing. Will have to save up for gaming laptop though. The processing speed isn't that great on the current one. Thanks for the idea. Laptop added to the gadget list.

Haha, got to work too. :D You've given me an idea for the Xmas period because I've got family living in Ponta do Ouro. Just need come up with some excuse for ditching the other half of the family living here.

After hours and weekends. It's a bit awkward when visiting friends and family. Now I know how divorced people feel.:(

Ponta is a bit of a Zoo over Xmas, but there are quite a few dive operators there.

It may be worth doing the coursework and one or two dives at Bass Lake before you go to Ponta, then you can do your qualifying dives for your Open Water Diving Qualification in Ponta. But the local instructor will have to work with the guys in Ponta, speak to your local dive school, they will advise you.

Thanks, will look into doing the coursework here first. Not so sure about diving at Bass Lake though. It's so murky.
