You really don't have to...I'd rather donate money than jump out of a bloody planeWOW, just WOW - I was with a friend at dinner when the notification came through totally blown away. I can't thank you enough.
Besides, what's the point in having money if you can't do some good with it.
I did a stint at Gt. Ormond St so I know a little about kiddies...hope you enjoyed the jump
Happy birthday

Top man Spaniel.
Aw....shucks...
I'm pretty sure that Mrs P doesn't have any testicles....I did a skydive a couple of years ago. The thing that surprised me the most was that there's absolutely no sensation of falling when you jump. Sounds counterintuitive, but it's true. You brace yourself for this gut-wrenching sensation, but it just doesn't come. It's incredibly noisy during the free fall phase, then the parachute deploys and the world goes silent. If you ever decide to give it a go (and I'd highly recommend it), make sure the harness straps are aligned properly... the jolt you get when the parachute deploys can bring tears to your eyes if you get that wrong!
( I thought it was for your 40th?)
Ps
after you've done a few jumps you tune the noise out and don't hear anything until the parachute opens.
It looks a bit like this - but without the dicking around in the freefall bit (that's Netheravon and Salisbury plain below)
Good skills Spaniel

Funnily enough, I worked up at Gt. Ormond Street on Radio G.O.SH for a stint in the mid-'90s as a bit of a thank you after being a patient there in 1985 (around Christmas time) when HE was filming a "Fix It" there...
If THAT wasn't bad enough, the entire Woolwich team (including Viv Anderson and Kenny Samson) visited....
I'm not sure what was worse... Savile, or waking up to a young Martin Keown holding my hand!
BTW Dee... I've only just realised your exotic name...
