Up for it.

I have been rather busy of late so no posts for the last week, I am involved with starting a new business with some colleagues. Its an Entertainment’s event company, basically people search the internet for something to do on stag or hen nights and we put them in touch with a company that can supply what they want and charge them for the privilege. Yes I know it’s a bit of a rip of but people have been doing just that to our company for years, so we thought why not cut the middle man out, become the middle man and make the same kind of money that they do.

We will be offering something a little different than our competitors though, events with a twist, high adrenaline type sports, once in a lifetime situation scenarios, scary holidays that sort of thing. Some of the ideas the gang has come up with so far are free fall parachuting without a parachute. Yes I know its an old one but the twist to this is that for a few quid extra your buddy can keep you company on the way down and help you into an extra parachute he will carry with him. I know what your thinking, no one in their right mind would attempt that, but believe me the world is full of idiots and I just know that one is gonna be a big seller.

Then there is Indonesian bungy jumping, much the same as normal bungy jumping but you get to travel to Indonesia to do it, a full week of bouncing up and down in the sun for a very reasonable price. Unfortunately in that country it’s illegal and carries the death sentence if caught. However the upside is that your week can very easily become a year whilst you wait in gaol for your appeals and stays of execution to run their course after which you make the final bungy jump through the trapdoor.

My favourite though and probably the most dangerous adrenaline pumping, blood vessel bursting thing a mans man can do, is a night out in Manchester city centre. Your night begins with a taxi drive (taking the longest rout possible and with the meter on barbiturates) to the bright lights of Manchester. How about a rock concert at one of the many arenas we have here. The top arena of the moment is built over an abandoned mine (so don’t stamp your feet). Or perhaps you prefer dancing the night away in one of our stylish clubs, where a bottle of beer costs as little as £4, maybe you’re a gay village type of chap and fancy a swim in the canal. You could do worse than go for a meal in one of the few restaurants that haven’t been closed down yet.

However you decide to spend your last night on earth you can be sure it won’t cost you an arm and a leg, to be truthful it will probably cost a lot more than that. The chances of you being able to get a taxi home at four in the morning, or even taking a quiet walk home as you watch the sun come up over the Medlock without some pissed up hardman beating the shit out of you are to be honest pretty slim.

Still excitement is the name of the game and for those individuals or groups (remember there is strength in numbers) who are willing to pay for an alternative type of event and go that extra mile for an experience they will never forget (or remember) the rewards are great. All bookings must be paid for in advance.
