I've always said that I would like to do a tandem skydive, so for my 40th Birthday Carolyn arranged for me to do one for the Lennox Children's Cancer Fund.

12,000 feet to 5,000 feet in 37 seconds, followed by about 4-5 minutes descent to the ground - What a blast - one of my top experiences ever - and thoroughly recommended to anybody else.

Here a few selected photos (I have many more to bore you with if you desire), and a clip of the video - to prove I really did do it!!

Thank you very much to everyone who donated, in total I raised £270
