BagPuss 0 #1 February 19, 2003 Hi all, Just wondering is there anyone from around my area? Oulton Broad Lowestoft Suffolk UK The reason is like most I went to my course on my own and although I met some friendly people, I am quite shy. So not really an outgoing person. Just would be nice to hook up with some local people who wouldn't mind some extra company. Thanks,BagPuss Oulton Broad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydivejersey 0 #8 February 19, 2003 I'm from Jersey where the price of beer and fags means you can make some friends on the cheap! We're having a boogie in April so why not come on over. There are some places left on the plane coming from Weston and their free! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BagPuss 0 #9 February 19, 2003 Hmmm, Don't Smoke, very rarely drink. But it is close to my birthday (April 1st) so that would be cool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gus 1 #10 February 19, 2003 Hey BagPuss, I'm from Norwich originally, infact I did my 1st jump (tandem) at Old Buckingham. I don't get back there much though, I live in Guildford and jump at Langar. Welcome to dz.com! Gus OutpatientsOnline.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BagPuss 0 #11 February 19, 2003 Old Buckingham is closer but when I enquired they didn't do any RAPS Courses etc. The only way I could jump from there is once qualified. Would have been good as its only about an hour from me as opposed to the 2¼hrs to Chatteris, but nevermind, its dedication!

TheBile 0 #17 February 20, 2003 I had a great holiday over in Jersey som eyears ago now. It was when Dudley Moore was on a float for the Battle of the Roses. I had no idea you had a DZ over there.

skydivejersey 0 #18 February 20, 2003 So put aside a few days and see what it looks like from 13k. Dudley moore eh? Sounds a bit too much like an A list celeb for Jersey. We normally get some guy that played a janitor once on a second rate daytime soap repeating on uk gold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tasadin 0 #19 March 8, 2003 well Im just outside Glasgow guys but lookslike I'll probably be jumping at Weston rather than my more local DZ's but aint decided yet. "If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caz 0 #22 March 2, 2004 Hey I jump up at Chatteris although am not currently as I've hurt my shoulder. Should hopefully be back jumping in about a months time so if you send me a PM nearer the time I'd be happy to meet up with you down there, introduce you to a few people and share a beer or two. Generally speaking the people at Chatteris are a friendly bunch though, so just turn up and introduce yourself and you'll find a load of people willing to say hello. ~~~ London Skydivers ~~~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
