That almost sounds cool. :D lol. You should take it to "Pimp My Ride" and get it kitted out with fold-out platforms and crash-mats... and a huge TV screen to watch bocking vids on. :)

Make sure you go to the American version though. The English one is more like "Chav My Ride." :P

Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream.

      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.

Ok looks like I can't attend this, got some medical reasons reared their ugly heads. Might have to lay off bocking completly for a while, unsure as of yet till I get test results back :(
So there is a free place going for this again!
Once again, sorry guys!

Cool, shame about Tok but glad to have Greg on board. The insurance company she recommended never replied to my requests so I guess we'll go with the one used by Pro-jump members before... though I'm gonna wait a couple more days before I get that in case it turns out we're covered by the general insurance for the entire event.

Ok cool, has she mentioned that to you recently? Like I said, I've been offline for a while now so I'm kinda out of the loop. I know that was originally on the table but don't know if it's still an option. Is it?

I guess we'll get more info now that she's back online too. :)

Right, seeing as i haven't heard anything about insurance, train tickets, accomodation or any more details, i am sorry to say i'm gonna have to pull out of this. I have been offered several other things to do this weekend, I'm sorry if there has been a general organisation failure due to a serious reason, stuff comes up. But for now i'm going to pull out of it as i have to give my other commitments a definate answer. sorry guys, i was really looking forwards to this, Chocl8

That's a real shame. Are you sure you can't make it? It won't be the same without you. :( Kind of a strange thing to say about someone you've never met ;D lol. But I'm sure it's true.
