essbee's 10,000 ft skydive (AAAAARGH) for Lottie

[Janh]

Am taking the liberty of mentioning that essbee has to send £110 by June 30th to take part in the sponsored skydive for the DSA with Thomcat - she needs to raise this amount quickly so if anyone can contribute towards her costs upfront it will help to guarantee that she can do the jump and raise lots of spondoolicks (???) for Lottie & Co.

If you send essbee a CAT she can give you her name & address to send her a cheque!

was it arranged by the chariy themselves or did you arrange it and then decide to get sponsored?

Just landed!!!!!!!!!! Got stuck in a cloud and couldn't get off! Think I left part of me up there.

Mckenzie, I roped Esbee, and 7 others into jumping for the Down's Syndrome Association. Between us we raised over £8,000! So proud of everyone that jumped and everyone that donated. Thank you girls, esp you Esbee. And Dingle - top girl for coming down to support us, you lovley lady.

I'll be back somewhere with a pic myself so you can see what a Thomcat looks like at approx 12,000 feet, travelling at approx 120mph.

Instructor said it's 1,000 feet every 5 seconds! Equivalent to falling 20 storeys in 1 second!

And yes I will be doing it next year, this tiume in aid of Cancer research I think. So I'll be recruiting again!!!!!!

Well done. You are very brave and should be very proud of yourself

Wondered where you had been TC! Well done, what a wonderful bunch of people you are
