I barely slept last night, and my stomach (or as Mr Cinds would say stumick) has been churning all day.  

I know I will do it.  Only because a friend of mine laughed and said 'never in a million years will you do that'.  I like to prove people wrong 

This is gonna sound cheeky...but....are you quite light Cinds? The reason I ask is they normally take the lightest ones first. When I did it I was taken up first (it was all big heavy guys doing it the same day as me) and they wanted to test the wind 

You'll love it though. Something to tick off the list of "mad things I did when I was younger" 

I'm a LOT lighter than I was 5 months ago (like 40lbs+ lighter) 

 I'm laughing at the 'heavy guys' bit, as Mr Cinds says he falls like a grand piano and makes a whistling noise when he jumps as he's so heavy.

I'm all excited for you now 

You're gonna be hyper on the adrenaline from this for days/weeks 

1 more sleep!! (if you can)

Good luck Cinds hope you have a great time hun xx

Good luck for tomorrow, sounds scary thrilling

the grand piano/whistling thing made me laugh out loud.

me too

Mr Blizz is like that, just getting out of bed! 

WOW!!! Well done - what diet were you on?

First 20lbs lost due to stress, the rest through healthy eating and exercise.  I haven't followed a particular diet.

Hmmmmmmmmmm ..............not good re the stress - but well done on the other weight loss. It's taken me two months to lose a stone! Still plodding away - it's slow progress but TBH - I don't deprive myself too much.

I feel sick 

Weather is not looking good though.

Good luck on the weather Cinds and have a blast!!!

Good Luck if todays the day!

Good luck today Cinds 

Good luck for today

About 30 minutes or so after my last post the weather cleared. I did the jump at around 1 o'clock and I loved loved LOVED it  I can't wait to do it again.  Mr Cinds jumped on the same lift immediately before me, but had we had more time to prepare the instructor I was attached to had said Dan (because he has his FS1 certificate) could have actually jumped with us and held my hands.  I was no where near as nervous as I thought I would have been.  But there's a brilliant moment on the video (which I should get a copy of next week) where we are in the door just about to go and I'm all smiles, then the instructor rocks back to propel us out of the plane and my face changes, for a split second, from smiling to sheer horror then back to smiles.  I've got a cd of all the stills from the video and I am busy uploading them now. Soon as they're done I'll be back to post some.

Everybody, go and do it, I am absolutely buzzing and so so pleased I did it. 

Oh yeah, and to make it all even more special, Mr Cinds presented me with a very nice watch as a congratulations gift. 

Well done  

Lori, I am so pleased with myself for doing it, I really never thought I would actually do it AND enjoy it as much as I did.  To be honest, after the training this morning, I really thought I was going to bottle out of it. (I wonder if I would have still got the watch? )  But it was amazing and would recommend it to everyone (I now know what I am getting the boy for his 16th birthday present).

Thanks Skylark  <<<< I think my face will be like this for at the very least a week, and that's got nothing to do with the G-force.

Oh yeah, during free fall we were travelling at 131 mph!

well done that woman! ! 

well done cinds!!!..........

Makes me feel ill just thinking about it ! Well done again xx

Fantastic Cinds.

You would never get me near doing anything like this - but that doesn't prevent me admiring you.

You're brilliant. 

Thanks Brisket.

I've tried 3 times now to post a picture and it's being awkward 

I'll log out and come back in to see if it makes a difference.

Well done Cinds!   

" />

Can anyone see it?  I can't 

Lori, I'll tell people he bought me the watch as he was so impressed with my jump 

Thanks velvet. 

Now to figure out how to get these flippin pics on.

Brilliant news Cinds - dead proud of ya 

I need my watch  

I'm so impressed - Very well Done

i just know I could never do that - even if my life depended on it.

Can't wait to see the photos.

Thanks   I'm still grinning, plus I have champagne now.  Busy trying to upload pics, but they don't seem to want to
