  1. That was excellent, I just wished you could have seen her face when he told her why she wasn't getting the ring. Superb I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

    Its Nevada!!!

    Nice butt. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  4. The problem with being in the army is that there are a lot of people out there trying to stop you growing up at all. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  5. DO NOT JOIN THE ARMY. You will become a member of the George and Tony Travel Club, getting to see parts of the world which you didn't want to see, on a regular basis and with no thought for your social life. You will get to be based in parts of the UK or Germany in which the houseign has been condemned but the money for the new stuff isn't quite here yet and your equipment will be so second rate you will get used to going out and buying your own. If you are thinking of the Army, join the TA, go on a tour and see how much the regulars moan about the poor admin, radios which don't work and the poor pay and conditions (esp compared to the americans) ADAM I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  6. ELMO. I have been described as having the intelligence level of a 3 1/2 year old, and he is cute (just like me ) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elmo I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

  8. "There is no I in team" Retort A " but there is a me " Retort B "and there is no f in way" I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  9. just breathe slowly and deeply. Close your eyes and take yourself to a happier, calmer place - one where the sky is blue, the trees move slightly in the gentle breeze and the bitch is getting stung to death by African killer bees. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  10. It is still current, I used the information from one many times in Iraq. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  11. Being British I don't understand what the attraction of this Black Friday is as we don't have it in the UK. I have heard that everything is meant to cost less so as I am currently on holiday in Florida I thought I would take advantage, but I have spent all day at the DZ and the jump prices were just the same I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  12. I would love to call in sick - but am stuck in the middle of Iraq so can't go jumping anyway. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  13. The real clash of the cultures is yet to come. Why do you think that the Chinese do not want any sanctions against Iran? Because Iran supplies China with all of its oil. Look at the toleration of the chinese for people of any religion, Buddists, Christians or Falun Gong. And consider their aggression towards Taiwan. Clash of cultures... you ain't seen nothing yet.

  14. As he had a $25million price on his head does that mean that there is a pilot bouncing around Baghdad singing "I'm in the money" tonight? I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  15. Consider yourselves lucky you are not in the British military. We have just had the massive payrise of 3%. I will try not to spend it all at once. When we are posted to Iraq or Afghanistan we STILL PAY full taxation - despite the fact that it is paying for stuff we will never see - good roads, etc. In our latest spending review it found that the Army was poorer than the other emergency services, fire, police etc. Interesting that they all have unions who demand better pay and conditions and we just get shot at.

  16. No. Just tried it - still wants a network key I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  17. I have just got myself a new phone - the old one had keys which would not work (difficult to text coherently). Got myself a O2X1B but when I tried to put in my old sim card (from a different network) to transfer over my contacts list it will not let me - demanding a network key. Does anyone know of somewhere I can get the phone unlocked, or download software to do so, so it will take the old sim card and I do not have to transfer my contacts by hand. Thanks I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  18. While RAPA has bought the issue to a head the membership at the AGM voted to allow foreign jumpers to jump at any British DZ because many felt that it was in the best interests of the sport. The BPA are members of the European skydiving league and compete at dzs accross Europe but to have a competition in the UK would mean the other countries would have to buy BPA. Every year BPA members jump in Spain, Sweden, Portugal and most other countries on their BPA membership but they cannot return the invite to those they meet abroad as any foreigner would have to join the BPA. Finally we have the 2 best windtunnels in Europe and many foreign teams train in them but will not visit the local DZs due to the BPA costs. While RAPA could change why should the British be the ONLY country who will not let other people jump on their own insurance? I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  19. Am in Spain at the moment and flew out with Ryanair. Probably wont bother again. They are cheap if you book a long way in advance but they add lots of extras on so check the full price for comparison before you confirm. They are very tight on baggage limits , only 1 item of hand baggage, unlike Easyjet who let you have a bag, a handbag and a dutyfree bag and a laptop. But if you can fly light and book early do it.

  20. I am not interested in CAA or FAA. I am not interested in group or individual policy. I am not even interested in why no-one bothered to read the insurance policy they signed the BPA upto. I just want to know why WE, the membership, voted, at an AGM, for a policy which the council will not implement. We did not vote for a 'consultation period' of about a year. We voted to allow German jumpers to jump in the UK. We are always told that WE are the BPA. Why have WE been ignored on what WE want? I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  21. If people think a can of worms has been opened wait until the military situation with respect to insurance comes up. The military train about 2000 students per year and have to pay for temp BPA membership for each one. Why? No idea. The military insurance covers all potential liabilities - and is paying out at the moment. Oh and apparently the BPA insurance SPECIFICALLY excludes payouts for on duty military (when they are covered my the military) Can't see that the military paying for all those temp memberships when they are worthless. Every year I have attended a BPA AGM they say what a good year it has been and how the number of full memberships have dropped. We are doing something wrong or memberships would be on the up. The status quo may be reassuring but is failing. I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

    BPA AGM 2006

    An excellent AGM. Met lots of old friends and if I missed you I am sorry. HUGE thanks to Adrian for giving me a lift to and from the airport. It was great to see all the green faces at breakfast on Sunday. Alcohol is an evil substance

    BPA AGM 2006

    I need a favour. My flight from Germany gets into Birmingham at 1500 on Friday. can anyone give me a lift to the hotel or can they give me a lift back to the airport on the Sunday for a 1530 flight? Help would be much appreciated. ADAM I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....

    BPA AGM 2006

    Adrian - have not seen you all year. Are you still allowed into the hotel? Not sure if I am going to be there - stuck in Germany unless I can get a lift. If I get there it will be great to see you and have a chat over a beer - before you collapse again! ADAM I'm drunk, you're drunk, lets go back to mine....
  25. I think that it is a shame that we cannot separate the BPA membership from the insurance component. The BPA are currently under threat of getting taken to the European court for their illegal insurance stance (not allowing other 3rd party insurance at BPA dzs) and overseas cover is not worth the paper it is written on, coverage is well below the European minimum coverage limit. We could then address what the BPA spends its money on - expenses - discipline boards which get repeatedly overturned and safety campaigns which no-one uderstands (corners kill???) Thankfully the BPA don't control the windtunnels. Jump abroad and spend the membership money on tunnel time.
