    I'll think about it. If this is the same sort of thing I did at the Fairburn Activity Centre a few years ago, earning my team double points, I could, perhaps, be convinced to do it again.....maybe.....

    I won't be doing the zipslide, but I will be there playing music and entertaining the crowd and zippers (if that is the collective noun for persons who zip slide?)

    Spoke to the guy from Inverness who is running it, and from what he is saying, it is going to be a great day, and a great fundraiser. See you all there!

    Google "icy strait point zip line" and click on videos to see the one the Mrs and I did last year. Just over a mile long, 1,300 feet higher at top than bottom! I realised how fast it was when the bloke at the top told us, if you find yourself twisting to the left, just stick out your right hand, or vice versa! It was great fun. Hersel screamed from the top all the way to the bottom. I did conclusively prove you can't take decent pictures on a 65mph zip line!

    I don't like heights either but I zip lined in a rain forest in Costa Rica a few months back and I loved it! Great fun and awesome views. It wasn't as high as the zip line that George did in Alaska though --- not sure I could tackle that one.
