Charity Reverse Bungee Jump
Today we went on the reverse bungee, we raised £226.50 for the Cardiac Unit, thanks to all the parents and staff at both nurseries, as well as Rowlands, Brakes and Budgen Citroen.
Here we are being strapped in tight - four way belts, shoulder restraints and feet up inside.
Countdown from 3, the cords tighten and the magnet lets go
140 feet or 0-60 in 2.4 seconds, and then drop back down again
Spinning as we come down, and now for the video.

New Out of School facility taking shape
Here is the main room at the new 'Teens' facility. You can see the Nintendo Wii on the left and X-Box 360 with Kinect sensor on the right.
Also new is the table football game which sees quite a lot of use during the week.
We have just finished putting down the new carpet tiles to provide a comfortable and very colourful floor surface.
The two large tables can be used for everything from arts and crafts to catching up with tonights homework. We even have a stock of jigsaw puzzles and a copy of the world's largest wordsearch book.
This image shows the soft play end of the main room, where the kids can let off a little steam on the padded mats. We also have two computer rooms, complete with a range of music and photography equipment as well as a kitchen/dining room. There is an outside area that can be used with a baskeball hoop and football net. In the pipeline are plans to develop a 'chill out' room with custom seating and access to the BBC iPlayer to allow kids to catch up with their favourite shows.
