A BRAVE Chorley woman didn't have time to paws for thought just before her 200 foot bungee jump.

Sharon Davidson, above, landlady of the Brookes Arms on Euxton Lane, dressed up as a cat to take part in the jump to raise funds for children's charity, Derian House - but admitted to being more than a bit scared.

She said: "I had never done anything like this before and I was absolutely terrified when I got up there.

"But then I thought what I was up there to do which was raise money for Derian House, which does so much good work for children less fortunate than others.

"I was glad I did it. It's such a great feeling."

So far Sharon, 34, has managed to raise £500 but is still counting all her pledges.
