    Only 3 of us at this meet? Sounds like t will be a quiet one then. Hopefully we can get some more takers for this before the weekend.

    Sorry guys, not coming to this one or Septembers, but I have got Neumo's kit and the parachute, so if anyone is passing Gatwick way and is willing to grab these bits...

    I've also managed to blag some little net bags for the 'chute strings, not quite enough for all of them but it's a start. So thanks to Persil (and a little white lie) we have 15. Not going to have time to attach them myself before the meet, but if you guys are intending to use it, it will make whoever takes it home to dry out life a lot easier if the strings are managed a bit better.

    good idea on the bags Jack, i normally just hank all my guy lines up on the chute, gets a bit tiresome after doing a dozen though

    Even hanked they still got in a right mess and took ages to untangle, but being sopping wet probably didn't help. Still think they should be hanked, but won't drop out as easily if they are then popped into bags. I was going to stitch tack them onto the tails left on the 'chute so they would be a (semi) permanent feature, but time is against me and I've been banned from having it in the house or barn because of the smell of smoke. Thinking about it, they might prusik on to the top of the line.

    I could pick them up on my way down on Saturday. However, the reason i'm not going on Friday, is i'm on standby for emergency callout work that night, and if I end up working all night, I probably won't go Saturday either. It's unlikely, as work's been quiet lately, but it means I can't make any guarantees.

    Cool Rico, well let me know, we could meet up at the farm in the morning. How's the finger and toe.

    Both hurt like hell if I accidently bash them against something, but other than that they're ok.
