    PC gone mad?

    getting sacked for injuring yourself Basing? (how's that going btw?) I know what you mean dude - it's just gonna get worse too. Risk Assessment... I could do that... "Whatever it is, it's dangerous and you're not allowed to do it. Now where's my 10 grand fee?"
  10. nice post Spizz. The guy clearly wants to swoop - Just like most of you will have done and we all know that saying 'don't do it' does fuck all. try and educate him before he becones a statistic. maybe you're all so good and so experienced that you forget how it feels to be a newbie wanting to climb that ladder? (Hookitt makes me laugh...)
  11. I agree, but at the stage I got that advice (30 jumps maybe) I guess the thinking was that you may miss something critical when making a judgement call due to inexperience...
  12. try a day smart ass now you see... calling the owner of the red hot fork names is a particularly silly thing to do...
  13. because we don't need to fix our cardigan on the side of the road to get to work
  14. not sexy... but, on their back with their legs wiggling in the air is possibly one of the funniest things in the universe... I've heard you mimic that behaviour after a few tequilas?
  15. Edit cos I totally missed the point of Toms post... DOH!
  16. Revival... this thread has me in stitches.... Dear Sunshine... should I sell my 4x4 and get a motorbike even though the insurance will cost me more?
  17. UK news this morning - The North Korean Gvnmt say to British Ambassador that the explosion was a non-nuclear planned demolition of a mountain as part of a hydro electric programme... Edit: oh - they're allowing the British ambassador to check out the site as well. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/3650702.stm

    Go neirigh an bothar leat, agus go mbeidh an gaoth choiche sa droim agat is go mbeidh tu thuas ar neamh leath-uair roimh is eol don diabhal go bhuil tu marbh means: may your way be successful and may you be in heaven a half hour before the devil knows you're dead. (people translate the first part as 'may the road rise with you and the wind be forever at your back'. Google that for the pronunciation. and more of a curse than a toast, but funny none the less.... Go n-ithe an cat thú is go n-ithe an diabhal an cat May the cat eat you and may the cat be eaten by the devil.

    Slainte! (Pronounced(quickly slurring) 'sa'lawn chair') - means To your health! and I had to google this cos I couldn't remember the spelling. Slainte go saol agat, Bean ar do mhian agat. Leanbh gach blian agat, is solas na bhflaitheas tareis antsail seo agat. (roughly pronounced: Slancha ga sheil agat Ban ir da vian agat Toluv gan kis agat Lanov gach blean agat Iss solas na vlahas taraish antail sha agat.) means: "Health for life to you, A wife of your choice to you, Land without rent to you, A child every year to you, And the light of heaven after this world for you." both Gaelic
  20. Dammit... That was gonna be my line!
  21. in the credits "If you would like to see your favourite tool demoed by a hot chick, email...."
  22. Words of one of my old instructors chewing me out... "If you start your goddamn EPs, FINISH 'EM!" He might have a point though... (any thoughts on this from current instructors?) Good catch on an important part though - that twisting really does do something...
  23. spot on advice... I've just got a £30 snowboarding helmet that's way more comfortable than any open face skydiving helmet I've found and has good shock resistance. Watch out for snag points though... snowboarders like random pointy plastic bits on their helmets, but a quick application of brute force and a couple of minutes with some sandpaper sorts those out. Something like this...
