Without a doubt, sharing the things I love with someone that I love. So . . . Skydive, hot bath (inc glass of red), making love and having a cuddle with them.

Well, end of March anyway! Well they took thee time to work it out, cos I've been here 7 months and it was only supposed to be one. Roll on Friday!! Weeeheye.

I GUESS, BY THURSDAY IM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE WEEKEND AND FRIDAY (LIKE ANY OTHER DAY) I DO AS LITTLE AS I CAN GET AWAY WITH. ANYWAY - IM JOBLESS IN 3 WEEKS AND HAVE NOTHING TO GO TO :( NO MONEY NO ENTHUSIASM :(

Mondays are always hell after a weekend jumping . Today is hell! Just ned to fall asleep on my desk.

2:4:0 Nearly did my first CF jump, but cloud base got too low! :(

A friend of mine was made to unpack his main in LAX back in December. I dont even think he was taking the parachute as handluggage!!

This is the official rule about a rig (with cypress). Not sure if it applies to a cypresless rig (probably does). Dear Skydiver: In case you intend to travel via commercial airline with your rig in the future, please follow these tips and hopefully you will not experience any difficulties. CYPRES is a non-dangerous good, this has been certified by various authorities. However, airlines may take this into consideration or not, their usual reaction when asked is that they are very restrictive and start a long-lasting procedure where the outcome is uncertain. We therefore advise you to simply pack your rig into a hardshell suitcase, such as a "Samsonite" case, and check your suitcase in without mentioning anything about a rig or CYPRES. We recommend that you do not draw the security staff's attention or volunteer the contents (unless specifically ask). Above all do not phone in advance or ask on the day of your flight if it is "OK". Do not try to carry your rig on board as carry-on luggage. Under actual circumstances, especially in regard to the situation in the United States, this likely will not be successful. You can rest assured that the CYPRES is a non-dangerous good and that carrying this device is therefore legal.

Z1 - but if you order it from parasports be prepared to wait! Better if you can get one off the shelf at a DZ gear store.

Graham, Please read your DZ.com e-mail. We are struggling to get hold of you. Your work e-mail address is failing!!!!!!!!! Thanks Jo

Nice one. One of the best things will ever do. I had my last one on Sunday. My lungs feel like shit and I've only been smoking 15 a week!!

184 jumps in 18 months. 1 cut-away!

More a habit I guess. I thought most people leave them on! As long as your capable of a good exit and pulling within 3 secs, there should be no risk of a cypress fire. And, if for some reason your out at say 1k, you will be out on your reserve anyway. But, yes I do get your point about being knocked out. It's highly unlikely. I'd still have mine on.

The lowest jumps I have done have been from 3k (3 times). I left my cypress on every time. I think at 2200 I'd leave it on, maybe pack a slightly quicker opening.

I guess so, never seen them since. Maybe if they had put sun cream on they would be here now?

No, but I have lost people in the sun before.

**Sex: skydives: beers owed** Thanks guys 02:01:00 Re, the sex bit, it is the amount of times, not people?

Urm - I'm gonna ask . . . what the fek are those numbers?

Got one 8k lob on Sunday. Shit weather, but great weekend though.

I think is a lovely thoughtful thought

. . . . . . and there is me thinking 3fLiEr is the serious kind!

That is not especially pleasnt!
