Saturday and 20 fun jumpers were keen but the weather started playing up. Only 2 loads were done. Will did a B-Rel Coach jump.
Sunday wasn’t much better. There were still 20 fun jumpers here and 4 loads went up but that was it. Oh well, the weather is looking better this week.

Reviews & Visitor Book Comments
🌟 Ross B.: “Great exp. Thanks so much to the team. A tick in the bucket list.”
🌟 Stephen J. & family: “Good afternoon, Thanks for your emails. I did enjoy myself very much. I don’t really go on social media outlets but have informed my old work colleagues and friends of my wonderful experience with yourselves.
My family and I had a really good time and in fact my eldest son, 1 of my daughters and myself will be jumping at Wollongong in November when we go there. Also, when my grandkids turn 16 we will make bookings at your centre as they enjoyed watching us have so much fun. Thank you once again. Kind regards, Stephen J. and extended family”

Bill, Just a note to say thanks to you mate for your continued support it was a great trip. I would also like to bring to your leadership teams attention the exceptional support provided by Andy who did the tandem jump with a great friend of mine, Julie. To say Julie was petrified on the lead up to the big day would be a huge understatement. I had my doubts that she would actually exit on the day. I put her decision to exit firmly in the hands of Andy who excelled in calming her down, reassuring her whilst having a bit of a laugh along the way. The manner in which he guided her through what was to her a daunting task was oustanding to watch. He should be commended not only for his flight skills but also his raport and interaction with the customer. I was not surprised to find out he had a military background. Ramblers should be proud to have such fine men on their books as you and Andy, Bill.
“exceptional support”, “reassuring… whilst having a bit of a laugh” – by John D. – Julie’s Tandem
