Hello...

So, yeah, I clearly haven't kept up with my promise to blog more often.

I do have excuses, not great ones to be fair.. Been busy at work and also with my photography, and that plus life gets in the way of blogging on here.

I also did this


That's me in my jump suit, just before I climbed into a tiny plane, climbed to 13,000Ft and myself and my instructor to whom I was very closely strapped (We got VERY close around a minute before we jumped, I was pulled into his lap just as they turned off the engines and opened the door!), launched us out of the door!
We were in free fall for around 15 seconds, which was...Erm...Hard to describe...I have never felt anything like it, totally weightless, falling towards the ground. I am pretty sure I uttered some expletives as we fell, along with screams of utter exhilaration!
Then the parachute was released and we floated to the ground for around 10 minutes. Turns out I'm not a big fan of turning sharply in a parachute, we did have to do this closer to the ground as the wind was getting up.
The always amazing Honey was there to look after me before and after the jump, even though it was a long assed day, to which I am very grateful...

And that's all for now...

oh and one more thing... Honey makes lethal cocktails!
