Playzone

Had a fun evening out with friends over at Playzone at Cosham.  Felt very young at heart doing the various slides, rope bridges, spinny things, nets, fireman’s poles, ladders, tunnels, bouldering wall, balance beam.  Did manage manage to pick up a rather nasty friction burn on my last slide down.  Reminds me of hurtning my knee skiing on the very last run down of the last day.

 Bit diappointed that Krispy Kreme’s closed at 9:30 pm so we missed out on them.  However came back and had a game of Hazienda which my friend Andy had brought down with him.

Mad Weekend In Milton Keynes 1-2 September

Another year and another mad weekend in MK.  This years’ activities were Indoor Skydiving, Go-Karting and Ariel Xtreme.

Managed a bit better with the indoor skydiving this year, actuall managed to hover rather than career from side to side.  The instructor even thought I could control my movements.

Go-Karting. Helen Morton beat her brother.  However I need more practice.

Snowboarding was the same as last year but felt that I didn’t make as much progress as I did last year though we were a smaller group.  Perhaps I need to just get out on the real slope. 

Aeriel Xtreme is similar to Go-Ape but on posts not in the trees.  It’s set up with a lower level and above it a more challenging higher level.  Some of it was very unnerving with jumps and climbing along parrallel ropes. However I had the satisfaction of doing it all including the brief but exciting vertical descent.
