Get yourself in before 5/6pm, Leave the jumper at the top with his ipod or a book. Wait for dark, bang it's done!

Haha fair enough! Would love to give it a go abseiling it. Need to fuckin rooftop it yet though! Number 2 on the list that after beetham. Just a little on the dodgy side in regards to the possibility of getting caught.

Sneak, what do you take my crew for...! It's been BASEd twice. The first time was when I'd just met my bird, the lad who was under the canopy landed on the gardens and ran over to the waiting van whilst she waited inside it. Needless to say she didn't have a clue what was going on - just saw a parachute land and then a man get in my van.

Only shame was the bus lane ticket, best £30 in my life, though. Sneak, it's getting to the point where we are running out of things in Manchester.. and space in my workshop for hanging chutes lol. The tell-tale is usually a random piece of string/rope/sling near an edge..

Gibbo - your right about Premier Lodge, most interesting is that we fitted our own FM antenna up there and hid the transmitter unit in with all the other transmitters in the London Comms room so they didn't notice. Did many broadcasts from up there.. Received as far away as Warrington!

I think I want to see your workshop BD over the years of hearing about it sounds like nirvana in there
