Thursday was much the same weather-wise, passing light showers and clouds, with occasional wind blasts. It didn’t stop Bethany Smith doing Stage 4, and Jamie & Corey did Stage 9 – completing their AFF Courses. Yahoo and well done!

Friday – was quiet. There was no jumping due to weather.
Saturday was much better weather-wise, but still a bit lousy! Our Tandem skydivers were Daniel Hurst, Thomas Lochert, Xanthie Milton, Daniel and Shakyla Read, and Rebecca Sheppherd.
There were a lot of fun jumpers here, about seventy. Flossy was running an Angles action day which was pretty popular. The second Caravan was called into action when needed. Laura did a B-Rel coach jump. The last sortie took off after sunset, the bonfire fired up, the raffle draw was on and TSC Christmas dinner was a winner.

Sunday rain showers and low clouds. About 20 people didn’t want to go home. The Cessna 182 did a few loads to cloud base and then the week was over.

The experience was amazing, Oli Adrian and Sara were really nice. I keep re-watching the video over and over again, this will be a favourite memory for a life time. Can't wait to do it again.
