martinmac Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Just found this on photobucket, my first attempt at organising a meet. What a disaster. I had been in Spain and just got back the night before. They had rough dressed the roads on the route and it hammered down with rain. Add to that Chesterfields car getting back ended.

martinmac Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 I have just been talking to the guys at the parachute centre ( hic) and they have a charity pack available. If people wanting to do a jump wish to get sponsorship for a local charity I will set it up and get a justgiving site sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 The photographer will be on site for the weekend and will be bringing his printing equipment, as such he can take shots and make you a copy while you are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoned them last week for Liam and I, they have no space for Saturday so we might be doing it on Sunday. I need to phone them back in the next few days or so.

martinmac Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 I will try to sort that mate. Our phone number is one digit from theirs and we often get calls saying is the jump on, I will just tell them no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinmac Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 Basically we have just a little cloud to stop our skin being frazzled and the temp in the mid 20s with a very light wind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinmac Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 To be honest Neil I have stopped looking. The confidence in accuracy is stated as very low. On some sites they give rain and wind on others its calm and sunny. I think the problem with previous years is we were stuck in a large open field at the hotel so it was not nice. This year there are so many options we shouldnt have any problems. Even if you sit in the pub with a cup of coffee or a soft drink thats not a problem. I cant visualise you with a soft drink though. The trip up on the steam train and then cruising the lake on the steamer isnt weather dependent so the options should still be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
