Hiya Carrie-Ann
I had a quick look at your profile on here and it says you're from derbyshire. I am also in Derbyshire and have done a parachute jump for cancer research.
If there's any help or advice you need with it then just give me a chout. I would offer to donate too, but am not going to the NW munch as I am a single parent and my regular sitter is I am a professional photographer and am willing to let you auction a photoshoot off for the charity. We recently did a charity auction for funin and raised Â£165, so it's not to be sniffed at. Just let me know if you want to use me in this way. If not, I'm willing to make a small donation.(As much as I can, but being a single parent is hard, so it will only be whatever I can afford at the time)
I know this might sound a bit tight, but every little helps.
If you want to get in touch then just PM me on here.
Take care
Marcuso

Thanks MissChief,
I'm sure that I'm gonna need all the encouragement (sp) I can get lol

:lol:
I can just see myself laughing all the way from the house to the airfield, suiting up and in the 'plane on the way up - I giggle like a child when I'm nervous!!!!!!! :lol:
I just can't imagine the feeling when I get to the door of the 'plane. I am terrified of 'planes and of heights too so am sure the feeling is going to be a brown one :rotflmao: All for a good cause though!!!!!!!!!

We both jump and you will love it, the hardest bit for your first jump is the exit once your out and the drougue pilot chute has been thrown just enjoy the view and the rush, and though your heart will be going really look around and remember to breathe and smile you'll love it. The canopy will be deployed at 5,000ft and you should have a 4-5 min canopy ride which is pretyty nice and you will have dual control.
Take care and have a great jump, BPA dropzones all have a very high standard of safety so you are in good hands.

Hi there, I've been skydiving for just over a year now, saw this and just decided I'd say good luck! You're going to love it, its definitely one of the best experiences you can have. You never know, you might get hooked! What kind of jump are you doing, static line or tandem?

14 Aug 2004

Hi and thanks for the words of support.
I am doing a tandem jump but can't see me getting hooked as I am terrified of 'planes and heights!!!!!!! I am doing it for a very worthwhile charity though so it will all be worth it - even if I hate it rotflmao
