Is that the CANI one? I'm hoping for an overnighter there on 18th Jul (I think...) if anyone's interested.

A bit off the topic but i think i was kayaking with you last sat colin at the 4:30 session at shaws bridge could be wrong but you (or some other colin!) did mention this event to me. Last week was class and the hooks are well and truly in. Bought some basic gear last night coz i got a total soaking last week in shorts and t-shirt. Roll on tommorow till i get back at it maybe see you there... maybe ???!

Best Regards,

David

Well hopefully going to buy this perception whiplash off Gavin (slippytoes) if it fits me. Will do for practicing through the week and esp the next 2 weeks of no MTA at shaws bridge :'( . My local river is 5mins walk away and its only about 4ft deep at the min and very calm so will be safe enough and my mate Liam is on the lookout for a kayak as well so if anyone heres of a gp kayak goin please let me know, plus it would be suicide kayaking on my own anyways... might invest in a throwline also to be as safe as possible...

See you in a couple of weeks Colin

Take care,

David
