She was a bit overwhelmed at first, but she got over it and now she really likes it (unfortunately as it's not a cheap hobby).

As for me, I think I'll watch that David Attenborough programme about fish on DVD instead - seems a lot less hassle!
go on give it a try,with the right training you will be fine.our club do a rental scheme for kit to new divers,so as to keep the initial cost of diving down.worth asking at your local dive centre.we are based in that well known coastal resort of birmingham,if thats of any help.
