    Shurely shome mishtake! Beer and Boobies are my friendS!! B
  3. The ninja is definately out there. Christophe from PdeF was at the Langar Boogie in May with a whole load of canopies/rigs to demo, amongst them was the Ninja 97 (I think). Not being a skygodlet, I stuck with the Springo and Electra, but there were favourable reports from those that did jump the Ninja. That's all I know. It's definately being produced and sold. B.
  4. Em, Go to your control panel (back of your head). Open it up, press "Edit Personal Information". Two thirds of the way down the screen is a box for you to put the URL of your picture. ie. www.emmaisfat.com/fattyemma.jpg or any such b-lox! If you need somewhere to host it, send it to me and I'll put it on me server lass. B. ****EDIT**** OR as Clay has mentioned, go look in the FAQ section where Sangiro has provided all the info!
  5. When are you coming to the UK Wingy? I'm based back in London now, you gonna be around for some jumps and beers? When's the vacation? Get here and drink beer! B.
  6. Moose, Do you EVER do any work???? By the way, here's a little pic of our friend the "Hungry" Moose..... B.

    OOPS!

    Hey Heath! Welcome to DZ.com, we like it here, I'm sure you will too! Just take the snappy comments here with a pinch of salt, everyone's (well I am anyway....) a little wound up and grouchy in the wake of the recent tragedy. Blues B.
  8. Zennie, I have the same dilemma. I try to mix the jumps, but the trouble is, if you start doing 4 way on the saturday and you do a few jumps, then you're pretty much gonna be with them all weekend. I tend to do a day of RW, realise I've had enough of that for the weekend and then freefly on the Sunday to just chill out and fun jump. It's funny but RW is like work and FF is the fun part to relax! I love both, but trying to get a balance is difficult when both types of flyers are asking you to jump with them. If I've done some good 4 way one weekend, then wanting to do FF on the next saturday, I have to turn them down. They then get someone else in their 4 way, so you're stuck doing FF all weekend! It's difficult, you're right! I've not found the right balance yet.... B. Then again, I could be making it all up. I'm really a spotty youth, trolling you all from my parents computer, when I should be in bed.....

    One In The Door!

    Congratulations Justin!! May you be very happy with the young one! B.
  10. So Clay, Us "Brits" live in a socialist state now do we....? Hmm... So are we Communist, Marxist, Leninist or Maoist??? Ah, yes, I almost forgot, there's that extremist socialist repressive state which is run under a Blairist regime..... Must be the one! As Emma asks, define Socialist! B
  11. Emma, This is the way that I see the reason behind this atrocity. For many years, the terrorist groups have been calling for Jihad on the people of the west, but so far it's been limited to terrorist attacks without the mainstream support of the people. Whoever is behind this, in my opinion, is definately trying to mobilise the whole Muslim world against the west. THAT is a very scary thought. These people have it hard, they see death and suffering everyday of their lives. We don't. This whole situation is going to need really careful handling if we aren't going to plunge into another world war - one based on religion and belief.... Now that would NOT be a good thing, no matter how much people want swift revenge. A heavy handed, blanket attack isn't the way to go - in MY book. Let's hope things can be sorted out without a religous war. B.
  12. Yes, BUT the first "official" (well, sort of....) DZ.com boogie and record was a 4 way!! Better get some more people together for another chance on the record then!! B
  13. In the UK, if you mention that you skydive, the blood donation clinics etc won't take blood from you - for your own safety. I'm pretty sure the BPA recommend not giving blood if you are a skydiver, it might even be a rule (not absolutly sure though...). B.
  14. Yes Skreamer, we KNOW you are a really BAD skydiver!!! Bwa ha ha ha hahahahahah!! B.

    Hey Moose! Glad to hear your jumping like crazy! Can't make it I'm afraid, I'm saving my pennies coz I'm off to Sebastian for Christmas and New Year. Probably drop in on ZHills too. Cross Keys is looking good too! B.
  17. Remi! SHUSH! I don't know what you mean anyway - I've only been arrested once and Skreamer is only an illegal immigrant working without a permit. What could possibly happen? B.
  18. Sangiro, Skreamer is in London, I'm going to be working in London from tomorrow and there are a few others nearby. What-say-you about us having a couple of cold beers to welcome you to the cloudy isle? B
  19. THANKS!!! Just got back from a week away on my motorbike and there's all sorts of stuff hidden away here! I would like to thank all those who made this possible - my mum etc (That's enough Gus......) Tea with Andy was fun, but Kreamer in Drag was, oh so much more amusing! So Gus, you got there in the end huh?? What did you do for your jump? Did it equal the sweet 6 way tracking dive we did??? B.
  20. Spectre, Here I think, we are talking about freeflying, not high speed exits. The possibility of haveing your pin knocked by someone in freefall is a far higher risk than when doing RW or high altitude exits. I think the idea is that somone bashing the bottom of your container on a pass is less likely to knock out two lengths of kevlar line than a small curved closing pin. Doesn't mean the kevlar can't get kinked though.... B.
  21. I did nothing!! Remi was on an Eight way RW (heaven forbid...) competition thingy and had an accident on the way out of the door!!! Ben.
  22. Remi, Tell the nice people about your "accidental" ride from 13,000ft today.... B.
  23. Sis, I remember this time last year, when you'd just replied to one of the best posts ever, something like "Can a whuffo relationship ever work". There was no backstabing and backbiting then!! Just plain old, NON-pc fun! YOU must pretty much be the ol' lady of this place! Along with Pammi that is... Ahh, the good ol' days.... B.
  24. Hey Monk! Glad to have you back, you're right, it's been a little strange around here recently with some real PC shit going on - as I'm sure you've been reading! Hope you stay around for a while!! B.
  25. Remi, You are a BAD man. You know that I don't have a job and yet you proceed to shove it in my face.... I would LOVE to post from work, instead I have to satisfy myself with multiposting.... B.
