i was just browsing ebay on my dinner hour in work & this kite kicked me in the face. flexifoil storm 14m red & white with pump, fully working for £75, due to the lad did not want it because he was scared of it. There was no lines or bar at all, but I got all that gear at home. So me & Ash went halfs on it just to play around with it, i can not believe it for that price, "its the sale of the fackin century" as a cockney would say. can't wait for it to turn up now, tomorrow or thurs the lad said :) more reasons to go hurt myself!!

up up up & away!

Um, well errr

it's like this,


I have various rather serious responibilities that involve me not having a broken ANYTHING.
These responsibilities unfortunately dictate that I be alive in order to perform them on a regular basis, in fact it would be safe to assume that sufferring a violent bout of deceleration trauma would demonstrate a distinct lack of regard on my part and that attempting to perform the aforementioned duties whilst dead could only be seen as irresponsible.
It is with deep and profound regret therefore that i must decline your generous offer.

Well on monday the monster turned up & I rushed home quickley to set it up to see how big this thing is. As I was unpacking it I thought *%#* its big, so I hooked the pump on it & started blowing this kite up.. as it was fully inflated it was massive (big grins all round) we are going to get some really big airs now with this thing..

Ain't it a beauty?
I want some money for the de-power kit so i can get the thing up in the air, although i'm totally shitting myself about flying it Dave says i'm going first and so i thank him for the pre booking of my early funeral.

And so... if anyone feels they're passionate about kites then your welcome to follow me to the cemetary in the sky!! LOL

:rolleyes:
