No more last minute dive savers?

Polish authorities are considering making popular decongestants like Cirrus, Acatar, Sudafed and others prescription drugs. This is because they contain pseudoephedrine which can be used as a base for making methcathinone - a psychoactive stimulant sometimes used as a recreational drug and considered addictive. If they do that then it'll be an end to last minute dive-savers:(

Won the PADI Renewal Competition

Yesterday when I went to check my snail mailbox I was very surprised to see a big packet I was not expecting. My surprise was even bigger when I saw PADI stamps on the envelope, so I've torn the wrapping and saw... PADI Encyclopaedia of Recreational Diving - the prize in this years Renewal Competition I have almost forgotten I've entered:). It's not the grand prize (return of the renewal fee) but still niiiiceeee:)
