I know the feeling..mind you, I have a bad back... ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

I have a casio watch that I bought in 1981 that still works :0)..mind you, it cant kill me

My sentiments too. Emails can on occasion get lost in cyberspace due to the multi routes they have to take before finally arriving at their destination. Additionally, anti-spam settings can inadvertently tuck an email to one side - and the receiver doesn't realize it's sat there until days later. This has happened to me on occasion.

Actually, the VAT is not all youd have to pay...ends up being around 25-30% with excise duties. I once brought back a couple of rigs for madeleine i think her name was..at Hinton. They semt so pleased at the 'amount' they had saved...they even arranged lifts for me from heathrow to Liecester as a thankyou. Another option would be to get a SF Teardrop thru Curtiss rigging (waaay cheaper than a Javelin Od' even at the current rates), then get your main from the US.. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

..sounds like you need to change your profession. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

Get in touch with Jon/Phil Curtiss at Langar. Theyll do you a good deal. Alternitavely, if you buy from the US, try get someone coming over to the UK to carry it for you..saves a fortune in customs and excise duties.. I am coming home (Leicester) in late sept for a week, if that's any good for ya..courier wise. Personally, I would support a UK dealer.. ~S Beej ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

I should have jumped a aff4 currency refresher jump a week last sunday. However, the previous day, I put my back out playing Table Tennis?!? It wasn't a wasted Sunday though..my wife did her first tandem! I know most tandem passengers tend to say 'they can't wait for the next jump' due to the post - euphoria of it all, but a week and a half later - my wife is *still* talking about the jump and the term AFF is often heard! So...we could become a skydiving couple! Now THAT would be cool.. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

Very nice presentation. Well Done. There are a couple of grammer errors however (I don't know if that's important or not, but I thought I'd mention it). Oh..and ref' your signature, it would read better as 'skydiving is not for you' (IS is missing) :0) ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

yeah.. David Icke was infact a famous TV Sports Presenter on UK TV in the 80's. Then he turned wacko and lost his job. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

buckle up..lol..funny..I used to have the fear of a mis-routed chest strap ever since i heard of a gal falling out of her harness 4-5 years back. ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--

Ive not jumped for a while, but Iam raring to go again. Ive been a lurker for a few weeks :0). Nice to see that there is somewhere like this forum to post to, nearest we used to have was the wreck. ng's..

I did my AFF in 3 days, inc one re-take at level 6 at z-hills in 98. If my memory is correct Craig Poxon did his in 2 days around the same time. A week is plenty of time..technically only one jump per day. ~S beej ---------------------------------------------------- If the shit fits - wear it (blues brothers)--
