A final thank you!
A huge thank you to everyone who sponsored us for such an amazing charity - this page will stop accepting donations on the 13th of the month so if you haven't sponsored us yet this is your very last chance!
MacMillan Cancer Support have been sent our sposnsorhip monies for an amazing £2119.23 so thank you all so much!
Keep a lookout for what we get upto next year too!
All the best
Pat and Jon
We survived!
Well we've done it and we survived - so all those hoping that we didn't - tough!
We just want to say one big final thank you to everyone who sponsored us, to everyone at Headcorn Parachute Club in Kent and especially to everyone at MacMillan Cancer Support for all the great work they continue to do.
You can still sponsor us upto and including the 13th November 2008 so if you haven't... Do so now!
Finally if you fancy a laugh check out these links...

UPDATE: (09/09/2008):
Hi everyone! Just another quick update to say thank you all so much for your donations to MacMillan... Pat and I are starting to get both very excited and extremely nervous as the big day approaches but we know it's for such a great cause that we're also adamant we're going to throw ourselves out of the plane... Let's just hope the weather treats as well!
Thanks to everyone who's donated and those who haven't? There's still time to click the BIG purple button above!
UPDATE (30/7/08): Thank you so much to everyone who has donated - we really really do value your support - most of you will know how close Macmillan are to us on a personal level so we really do appreciate every last penny that's been donated - thank you!
Those of you who haven't donated and are viewing this page - shame on you! Now click that big purple button just above this message and donate NOW! ...Please
What are we doing?
Us two crazy idiots have decided to throw ourselves out of a plane from 12,000ft... I'm sure some of you are hoping the parachutes won't open or that they drop us somewhere in the middle of the Sahara, without water, but either way it'd be great if you can sponsor us, for us much as you can afford, for such a great charity as MacMillan Cancer Support.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Macmillan Cancer Support gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor us now!
Thanks,
Pat & Jon
