trumpetfish 0 #1 May 6, 2003 Hi Is there anyone out there who jumps regularly at Hinton DZ ? I've jumped at Hinton a few times since I did my A License in the states and like it there, just wondering if there are any other new jumpers around in the same situation/stage as me (35 jumps) who go to Hinton. For those who may be thinking 'what's with the subject header?', Hinton DZ is near 'Hinton-in-the-Hedges' village. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amazon 7 #5 May 7, 2003 You need not worry about the fauna as much as the flora. Just ask Sonny Bono about flora... ooops can't..... the attack tree got him. You never know when a shrubbery might decide to attack on a landing. NI NI Call in the knights Amazon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBKid 0 #7 May 7, 2003 I jump at Peterlee, but once I've left Uni (not necessarily graduated), I'll be going around various Dz's to see which ones I like. A lot of my friends jump at Hinton when they're away from Uni, but none of them are on these forums. Give me about a month, and I might see you there.

AggieDave 6 #9 May 7, 2003 So its just a fish, eh? I was hoping to hear some sort of really cool story involving a stripper, some midgets and a lot of beer... --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
