Grr, can't watch past 2secs of this or any of their others. It keeps stopping mid-jump, leaving me on the edge of my seat - will they land safely, will there by blood and tragedy?!?!!

Nice, though - better to watch while walking round the estate than kids lounging smoking and doing other undesirables :)

Ha! Now, having watched it, I laughed out loud, as they've put us to shame... When wandering round the area on New Year, we climbed over the subway entrances a bit, and dared each other to jump off....but....didn't....

see 00:45 to go...
Ah Anti Social Behaviour never looked so graceful.

Only the French could create a subculture built around evading the law.

.. and lovely Gav, only a policeman could post that comment!!! The guy who flips on the phone box.. never used to turn up with a pen, couldn't write, less self control, would often fall asleep. Now he is physically fitter, disciplined, part of a team. For me its all positive. (no law abiding citizens or their property were harmed in the making of Jump Marsh Farm!)

woh - that is so cool. massively impressive - especially the section in the middle with the HUGE jumps - would never be able to watch it in real life though- would be imagining bloody compound fractures left right and centre. my hats are all most definately off.

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

A Broadside: *plot spoiler* for Tory sympathisers

Today some alarming social equality data was released. It said what we all know: if you are poor, you have less opportunities in life. For every £100 a month less income than the median you start school one month behind developmentally. Your vocabulary aged 5 is half what it is for a rich kid if you are in the bottom ten percent of income. Housing tenure stats are even worse. "Only 4 per cent of those of working age living in social housing have degrees, and nearly half have no or only low qualifications. Only half of men and 42 per cent of women of working age living in social housing are in paid work, compared with 89 per cent of men and 81 per cent of women in households with a mortgage." Social housing: by its nature, is grouped (london people ignore this, you are the freaks not the norm). That means that we have allowed ghettoes of poverty and low attainment (not just in a SATS way either). Now it would be easy, and some daft Tory has already done it, to pin this on
