STUFFED

Anyone can dream. This week we got to throw a large party of Bankers (from HSBC Liskeard) off the cliffs of Adrenalin Quarry. How cool is that? The victims won one of our newsletter competitions and were tough enough to come and get their just desserts.

Even better, they live and work in Adrenalin Quarry territory and so had no way of backing out. To be fair, they were a great group and had a fantastic time. I went out in the safety boat to get some snaps and they were bobbing and grinning in the sunshine. Love this job.

Were still reeling from our big days last week. 602 zips in a day! Then came yesterday with 632. That’s one every 45.5 seconds. All day long. Crazy. We discovered a new set of challenges with that rate of activity, some mundane, all hard to fix.

Parking: if peeps can’t park, they can’t jump, and if they can’t jump, we’re stuffed.

Queues: if peeps have to wait more than they can bear, they get grumpy, and if they get grumpy, we’re stuffed.

Well we’ve got it fixed: more overflow parking and bigger signs; and a really hard look at the practice on the jump decks gave an elegant solution: more crew working harder. Nice. What keeps you awake at night?

From 7.30am to about 11.00am there really are no problems, only challenges. From 11.00am to 3.00pm the challenges turn into problems. At 3.00pm turn off the phone and hustle till it’s over. Simple.
