40!

On Friday July 10th Stuart was 40 years old, as a "treat" for the old codger I booked him a tandem skydive. He absolutely loved it as you can probably tell from the photos below where he does not stop grinning.


Getting togged up

In the plane

Sitting on the edge of the plane 2 miles up waiting to jump!!

Freefalling above the clouds at 130mph!


Freefalling through the clouds

freefalling with the ground getting closer and closer

Parachute opens!

After the skydive we headed up to the green farm Hotel in Thorpe Market Norfolk. I would definately recommend it for a weekend away. We stayed in the paston room.
Despite the fact I had a chest infection and spent most of the weekend coughing and spluttering I think he had a good birthday :D
