Tomorrow is the big day! Starting to panic now! Almost hit target for sponsor money as well. Can't wait till tomorrow afternoon when I'm back on firm ground and have a beer in hand!

I raised £25. From work people so far. Good start seeing as it's first day.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 2nd July 2011 I'm going to be thrown out of a plane at 10,000 - 12,000 feet, strapped to somebody who actually does this every day for fun! We will reach about 120mph when the instructor will open the parachute and hopefully we will fall peacefully to the ground!

Why am I doing this? 2 reasons:

1. To raise money for a charity called Breath Of Life who do great work helping people with breathing problems or lung diseases. Although I have never had any personal need of the charity a school friend of my fiancée has cystic fibrosis and is raising money for Breath Of Life's CF campaign. When I met Jo I couldn't help but get involved, like most of us I haven't done much for charity in the past apart from the odd couple of quid so to absolve my guilt I though why not throw myself out of a plane!

2. I have actually wanted to skydive for years but kept putting it off & chickening out so now I have an excuse and can't back down.

To find out more about the event please go to the Facebook page.

O and just for the record, you can't donate extra to get me to jump without a parachute! Although you can try! ;)
