Bungee jumping & skydiving are the two greatest things you can do! I've done both several times & bungee jumping's actually more intense due to the fact that you're closer to the ground & have to dive head first.
However, skydiving's better as you get up to 200 mph just a few seconds after leaving the aeroplane, which isn't too shabby!

Don't worry: if it's for charity even if you die your sponsors should still pay up!  =P~

I'm worried that you are insane.

I'm still alive! \/
What an experience/adrenalin rush. Made the mistake of looking down as the crane hoisted me up, Holy shit that was the worst bit. Jumped out looking over the sea then saw little faces a long way below. Absolutely awsome.
Today has been a great day as I managed to have a surf this morning and caught me first proper tube.
All I need to round it off is 3 points for the Villa.  \/

Pretty sweet right? told you! It's addictive as well...

JD, Robbo, where art thou?

[ROBBO]

Still here but not a good weekend. A fifteen year old junior easily beat me in the semi's of the singles knock out (golf), they have far too much time to practise. I await with interest the highlights package tonight to see the Angel show, state here and now it's his last season with us, can't knock him for effort but sadly too slow and not very lucky.
From all reports Davis should be given a spell back in the twos before wqe totally ruin him.
How are the rellies? give them my regards.

[peter w]

Robbo, rellies all good. Regards to yours...

I disagree about Davis I don't think he needs a rest at all. He's just not a wide right midfielder come forward. Wasted him on Saturday and if a player is played in a position he's not usd to then he can look poor. We've only played 8 games of the season so far, so to suggest he needs a rest is nonsense. He's looked good in the middle 3 in my eyes, and the manager thinks so too. The only reason I'd drop him is to play a left-sided midfielder on the left- or if Luke Moore was fit. He's not, so that's irrelevant just now.

Interesting to see what O'neill does on Sat now. 4-4-2 just didn't seem to work last weekend. I thought Angel was the better of the two forwards. But, God decided that his weekend was going to be shit in the space of 1 minute. Slag him off for pens all you like, but he's as ggod as we've got. Baros is probably worse, barry is just someone who belts the ball fdrom the spot. great when it goes in, but looks amateurish when he misses. he too is 50/50. So who? Petrov? Davis? Gabby? Ridge? We are very average-poor with our conversion rate.

But, I will stick up for Angel. He kept going and always looked like he wanted to stand up and be counted. For that he takes some credit. For a missed pen he doesn't. For the own goal..well he was just trying too hard to make up for the spot-kick.

[JD]

I actually felt sorry for JPA.  8-[  The penalty miss was bad enough, but the own goal could have knocked the stuffing out of most players, a strange goal. At least he carried on trying and if it wasn't for a great save at the end by Robinson, he could have easily have won the game for us.

On a side issue, why do players insist on trying to blast the ball into the back of the net from within six yards. I have seen lots of missed chances over the past few weeks from different games, where players have tried to blast the ball into the back of the net, instead of side footing it along the ground. Suffice to say, most have missed.  ](*,)

[peter w]

Not sure whether it was a great save by Robinson JD, as Angel was guilty of trying to just blast it. If he had put the penalty away he would have hit it hard, low, and into the corner. The worst miss was Petrov's. It was an ugly 'screw' past the post when he had done the hard work. So, ignoring the penalty for a second, We eqialise, and then have more than a good few chances to win the game. We didn't. That was the most worrying aspect for me.

[JD]

At least we are creating these chances Peter. Last year a penalty miss and then an own goal would have resulted in defeat. It seems nice in a way that we do not play well but we are all disappointed that we did not win. That's progress.  =D>  =D>

With the chances we are creating, I still think we are going to give someone a hiding very soon.  Hopefully it will be this weekend O:)
