One thousand, two thousand, three thousand - SHIT!

Hmmm, just learned that there's a 'theme' for the Saturday night event during the Great Warwick Jump course. The theme is... SUPERHEROES.

The Skydiving Club has obviously not thought this through.

I mean, undergrads aren't the most organised of people, so many of them will be looking for things to make costumes out of on Saturday afternoon.

Now, what article of clothing is commonly worn by superheroes? A cape. And what is a cape? A large area of.... brightly-coloured billowing fabric.

So they'll be looking around for a source of large areas of brightly-coloured fabric, to cut a cape-shaped piece out of.

That would be.... PARACHUTES.

Yes, the skies over Lincolnshire on Sunday will be ABLAZE with the death screams of plummeting undergrads with cape-shaped holes in their canopies.

I estimate that due to this decision (presumably taken by the social secretary of the Skydiving Club) we'll have a higher-than-average 'wastage factor' this weekend. (Separate this from 'wastedness', which will be high anyway.

I must find the social secretary of the Skydiving Club and give her a good spanking.
