    I got to go around a submarine and a ship at faslane, that was one of the best weeks that wasn’t dance related aha 
    Aw submarines are so cool, I want to visit the HMS Courageous be so awesome to walk around a nuclear sub!
    My dad use to work on nuclear subs.. my college was next to base .every Monday a drill siren would sound.. siren being if the nuclear submarine when bang or something and like we got talked through what to do if the siren goes off not at drill time.

    Oh my goodness!! You guys are all daredevils!! I could never do it!!

    My partner's parents booked him in for a skydive for his 16th birthday, he'd always wanted to do it. He enjoyed it so much that he booked in again a few months later!!

    He's been trying to persuade me ever since but he's getting nowhere! Not a chance! No thank you!

    Yeah @Aidan they are!! Not good for tall people though. When I went on the submarine I had forgotten my berry so had a spare on with a badge which was most definitely not a cadet badge can’t remember what it was not though aha and then my tooth fell out so had to carry it around my the rest of the way time aha

    Can't believe this thread took off in the first place..
    I was really struggling and I was just so done, I had ran out of ideas in terms of keeping me distracted and this was my last try
  • independent_independent_ Community Connector Posts: 9,951 Supreme Poster
    @Starlight I know!! It's madness but the good kind of madness. 

    I'll duck out of the skydiving ;) even the thought makes me feel weird.

    Like I generally thought everyone hated me and this thread would only last a quick conversation then die down and disappear.. I even originally asked for it to be deleted lol 🤦‍♀️
