Default Tandem Parachute Jump - update

Hey up

Right the jump is this saturday, we have booked into the centre at 1pm, so that cameron can do his morning show.

The station guys are travelling up from 11am.

You are all welcome to come along if you wish, as you all are already aware its totally weather dependant and totally out of my control,

All I can do is keep a eye on the weather and update frequently,

I am still accepting sponsorship and because i have met my target for kids count any extra sponsorship i generate will go to the WYIOC pot for the BEP fund (Ants) so if you know anyone that would want to sponsor me please let me know, its still the madness of falling 15,000ft out of a plane.

As always thanks for your support chucks....

thanks guys

Sarah x

Default Finally

well chaps I did it, it was amazing loved it... had a bit of a moment when it came to falling out as the guy strapped to me was shuffling forwards i was trying the back scuttle....but then hands crossed over my bosom and fall forward.... easy peesy

Not too sure about free falling, for them that havent done it, it is totally different to the you tube vids, free falling isnt slow its 120-160 mph and when its raining it hurts.... it is also the weirdest sensation ever

Then opens the shoot and take in the last 5,000 ft, that was great the views were spectacular...the weather was lovely all day so everyone got to do it and I was last....felt like a bond girl

a couple of pics for you.......












A massive thank you to Bri & Mandi for turning up at such short notice and for also hanging around all afternoon and for keeping scott company.... and also to everyone for the texts etc

Next mission wing walking bring it on....
