Jump Britain: Free runners, Parkour

Created: 07 January 2005
Did you catch the Jump Britain programme on Channel 4 last night?

 

Too old to do all that myself but some of those jumps and stunts those guys, sometimes called free runners, do were amazing. Very impressed and stylish. You may have seen some of the action on previous ads for the BBC channels.

 

Urban Free Flow have a web site detailing the culture and practice.

Donate to the Tsunami disaster via Amazon

Details
Created: 05 January 2005

You can donate to the Tsunami disaster fund via Amazon.co.uk which makes things a bit easier as I have found the dec.org.uk site down a few times.

I've contributed through here. Just make sure you click the tickbox at the end which means they get the UK Tax relief as well.

If you want to see the awesome power of the tsunami there are some videos on this link: Tsunami Videos, that should make you think about the damage it has caused to lives and property.

Southbourne Groove

We all try and get involved in the local community scene in Southbourne, Dorset.

When I have time, I try and update southbournegroove.com with snippets of news and events.
