FFX - Frolic 2010

[Rag_It]

Just move your wedding to suit

Mate, your are a genius, I could have easily done that, had we not both decided on the 5th June and booked the venue this week!

[wheelie]

I am gutted it is in June, as getting married on June 5th! Had planned to buy a Lotus in July, and August would have been perfect for FF9!

Ah well!

There are going to be two Frolics next year, June and August. I'm pretty sure SE will be well represented on both trips.

Frolic 2 will be in the last 2 weeks of August and will include Mas du Clos again, plus possibly Le Mans and ledenon if we don't do it in June.

For the record I'll only be going on the June trip - two FF's is one too many for me, Egor and Katie

Ragster, if you're getting married June 5 and the trip is last week in June, what's the f*ckin' problem? Just pop into work on return from honeymoon (assuming standard weekend in Blackpool Travelinn, ride in dodgy horse and cart, quick one on the pier, return home), delete all the emails in inbox, shred any paperwork and then get your ar$e on FF Extreme. You've been planning to buy a Lotus for as long as I've known you (and to get married, actually). The anticipation and then failure to follow through on these plans have spoiled two years of your life - don't keep making the same mistake!!!!!

Cheers,
Robin

Harsh but fair - oh, and theres always August

Bloody hell who wound Robin up, starting to sound like me after demolishing the Laphroaig.

He is quite right of course, marrrrrrrrrrige is a great institution, but one should not let it get in the way of real enjoyment. Tried fantastic mountain passes, driven great tracks, had good sex, but it is a toss up between them. You have three weeks so no contest.

I'm sure Mr Rag_It knows I'm only pulling his leg - he's well used to it, as I've said the same thing (more or less) each time we've met

Cheers,

Robin, you know i took that the way you meant it mate, there is of course a lot of truth in the above, so i will take it on the chin! I am 95% confident both will happen next year though...!

It's not in the shop ... can we go yet?

[Scotty C]

We just need Mark (ryallm) to sort out a weeks sky diving and we will be sorted .

There is a DZ with British instructors at Royan not too far from Bordeaux http://www.goskydiving.cc/France_-_Royan.html , but I have heard rather mixed reports about it. If you really want to do AFF the place to go is Empuriabrava in the NE corner of Spain. The biggest DZ in Europe and one of the best in the world http://www.skydiveempuriabrava.com/index-2.html - bit of a trek from where you are going to be though. I am certain to be there several times next year - if you need any more info just ask

Mark

Would love to do this.

Anyone up for an extra week?

Used to throw myself out of perfectly serviceable aircraft, then thought it is only a matter of time.
