| OK. I give up, no-one tells me anything anyway! So here's a brief of who was doing what and where the last time I heard anything! | |||
| Tiggsy had a baby - no ! really! and is very happily doing coochy-coo type noises, wiping up yekky stuff and opening the windows to clear the air a lot. (Congratulations Tiggs!) |
|||
| Kev has been off travelling South America (and jolly interesting/frightening it sounds too!).
Sadly he had to come back and earn a living for a change, so is now back in Jersey and seriously considering a jump or three this year. |
|||
| Senor Pedley is currently in Norwich (not his choice of location I understand...) studying law. Enough said.
Rumour has it that he recently found a UK DZ that had a rare windown in the weather and was able to get two in... |
|||
| Sevi is now engaged to Eric and getting down a lot (to Vannes) where she is happily persuing her French "b".
Maybe this year eh? (now why is it that the whole sentence sounds like double-entendre?) | |||
| Phil and squeeky got married and didnt go on a skydiving honeymoon (so whats the point?).
No, congrats etc, honest! I understand that Phil is still keen to jump if/when he gets a weekend pass, and that they may be moving back to the UK sometime soon (if not already) |
|||
| Pete is extremly busy doing rocky-climby things and cramming people into the newly refurbished "Banks' Wine bar to do anything as silly as jumping out of planes (Wus) | |||
| Ian Carter is now in Jersey and looking for work / amusement. Wants to jump again, but sadly had to sell his rig to eat at the end of last year.
Hoping to get back to it as soon as he gets a decent job again! |
|||
| Aaron is itching to go. | |||
| Brendon is still regularly getting to Vannes. | |||
| and Me? Just waiting for a reserve re-pack and Cypres service - hoping to get to Vannes May 11th. | |||
