Mrs Firestars is going to be jumping out of a plane from 14000ft.

Unfortunately ;) she will have a parachute and be strapped to someone that knows what they are doing.

The charity jump is for a young child in our village who has not had the best of starts in life. Full details can be found on the local paper cutting which I have skillfully scanned and pasted below.

If you have few pounds knocking around in your Paypal account, then a donation would help tremendously. :)

Im collecting via Paypal donations - via jumpforalfie <atsign> wilding.eu

The jump is in Norfolk at the end of August. Anyone local is more than welcome to come and have a beer with me and watch :)

Im a bit blown away to be honest. :)

We are always asked for donations pretty much everyday in our lives, and after a while, for me at least, they blur into one and you lose sight of whats what.

However when, and only when, something is close to you do you understand what a difference your generosity makes.

Im humbled by others willingness to give hard earned funds to people that they do not know. I can ensure that the family will be very, very grateful.

I will provide videos (subject to SWMBOs editing :) of the jump itself) and again invite anyone to attend on the day, for beer on me, either at the jump location or closer to the village in Suffolk after the event.

Donation sent. That scan isn't appearing at the moment though, although I read it previously.

Last post on this subject from me.

A big thank you from the Wilding family for the donations so far :)

Don think there will be much sleep here tonight, although the wife has already nodded off :eek:

Not sure that Im keen on her being strapped to a 6ft ex-marine, but there you go, its all in a good cause :cool:

Any last minute donations would be warmly received!

Sorry Lee - totally missed this. Donation on its way!

Just logged on to see who sent that. :p

Thanks very much indeed. Greatly appreciated!

The family concerned were at the SkyDive on Sat and have asked me to pass on my thanks to all concerned on Acorn.

All the best.
