gus 1 #4 November 20, 2005 Hey Jaap, I used to live in Guildford. There are some jumpers up towards Reading, down towards Portsmouth and of course plenty in London but I never met anyone else around Guildford. Nor did I ever find much to jump locally but there is one thing, pm me if you like. GusOutpatientsOnline.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sabre210 0 #7 November 28, 2005 Jaap Tried to hunt you down to go jumping tonight but you seem to have gone to ground. There doesn't seem to be a shortage of jumpers looking to hook you up with a jump so leave some contact details. As big John McCarthy would say in the Octagon...

sabre210 0 #9 November 29, 2005 James. Has he been in touch with you? Have you taken him out jumping? What's the score, we've got stuff lined up for the boy. I do hope he's going to walk the walk and not just talk the talk. ian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JaapSuter 0 #11 November 29, 2005 Fuck, way to up the pressure there guys... I'm seriously caught up in work here, being in meetings all day long, since I got here, till I'm leaving. I've talked to Evil Ivan earlier today though and it appears we'll be hooking up on Thursday. If somebody has a 240/60/80 for me that I can pack myself and an object that is forgiving as far as forward speed goes (span, overhanging antenna or antenna with massive tailwind), you might be able to pursuade me into killing myself. I'd love to get a jump in with you tossers! Reaching me is pretty hard. I'm only able to check my email about twice a day here. My cellphone doesn't work here unfortunately. Anyway, it appears Evil Ivan is coming up with a master plan for Thursday, so I'm looking forward to drinking and maybe jumping with you guys. I haven't even met you fuckers, and I'm already overwhelmed by the hospitality. I just turned on the TV and both BBC 1 and 2 were running adds: "Have you seen this Canadian BASE jumper? We want to buy him beer!" Incredible... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You want a UK span???.....he he he....ho ho ho......wha haaaaaaa haaaaaaaa haaaaaa....hhhhhhaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaa haaaaaaaa (uncontrollable Dr Evil type laughter). Well We certainly have something which ticks most of those boxes down here in London, so let us know. I take it Ivan's got you pushing his Wheelchair on Thursday then. ian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Luke 0 #13 November 30, 2005 QuoteIf somebody has a 240/60/80 for me that I can pack myself and an object that is forgiving as far as forward speed goes (span, overhanging antenna or antenna with massive tailwind), you might be able to pursuade me into killing myself. I'd love to get a jump in with you tossers! I am able to satisfy all your criteria will the small exception that my second rig contains a 288. Should be jumping tomorrow too.

Thursday does look like being an evening in. A bit of rain and wind never hurt anyone, but there are limits. Tonight looks possible though. The weather is very jumpable at the moment, contrary to the forecast. If our elusive visitor surfaces, we might even be able to offer him a BASE jump in the United Kingdom before he goes.

I'm grabbing the train from Guildford to London probably around 6 PM. The plan from there is to jump, drink and then get the Sultan of Brunei to pay for strippers. Can't wait!

I'm not sure what the weather's up to ... i guess you're taking him to the big london object that might 'spark" his interest... i'm not sure of my plans ... mainly because i'm up to my nuts in it ... But if the weather shits out tomorrow take him to soho - i hear they like dutch boys there !!!! Otherwise if i can't jump i have a manky 265 troll mdv that might just save his ass !!!
