Plucky 0 #1 August 24, 2005 Hi all I've been bad ... I started reading DZ.com years ago, not giving a thought to ever posting on here, but somehow after all the lurking, I've ended up posting a bit. Somehow I got into a habit of regularly reading the safety and training, gear and rigging and (somewhat morbidly) the incidents forums, trying to get as many points of view on various things as I could, and somehow missed the intros before I finally posted something! So my sincere apologies for being impolite, and not officially introducing myself sooner! Here goes ... I'm a South African living in London. I started jumping in '97 at Citrusdal via static line, but haven't been a very regular jumper since moving here almost five years ago. Somehow I keep current(ish) though, and have a few boogies planned for next year. Thanks for all the entertainment, and fantastically different and interesting points of view on a staggeringly wide variety of subjects, not to mention skydiving! So that's my verbose, belated 'hi!'
