    Geoff I think you will find that importing from the 1950's is quite expensive, who is flying the Dakota and will they be available for parachute jumps. When does training start?

    The Dakota is the delivery plane for the parachutes

    We are actually jumping from a 747 whilst clutching duty-frees - so that should be fun.

    Training consists of lots of knees bending and screaming at full volume- your neanderthal neighbour is doing the screaming training

    Can you not fly a plane? It will be difficult to jump and avoid spilling the G&T, I may need extra training.

    You may have to ditch the drink and hope that Flo catches it on upwards boing before it hits the ground

    I will don the Superman costume and practise my flying skills

    Sorry folks- nobody is having my new silk scarf - bought this morning in Manchester! I also got a cheapy one from H&M, not silk.

    Think have more energy today- not too sure though as was pretty wobbly going up to bustop this morning. 'B' freezing it was too & because we, daughter & me, were early we couldnt get a family ticket! Only saves about 30p but it's the principle! She, not me, had an appointment in town & I was muttering about 'why didnt I stay in bed?' for quite a while. Mondays' bad as OH leaves at about 5.30am so totally disrupted day. J.

    Geoff  if you can fly why do you need a parachute?

    Jo you need some cake, I think Jean has some Bakewell.

    I spend a lot of time doing good deeds-so have come up with a cost efficient idea-will get one of those banana boats take it up to 5000 feet-tow it to get a good speed going flip over- you lot all tumble out-we get paid by the number of people who take part -no carbon footprint- no cost- everyone's a winner- bish.bash, bosh

    Lord Sugar and Theo Papitus will be so proud-this is a goer

  • Welcome home Becks and Jess.

    I didn't realise that Forkers United was still a possibility. Are we still hoping to get a team together for Rio?

    Not without funding-but is all in hand-it is a good job I am here
