Scotland 2008
Liverpool University - BCU student safety course - Liverpool Friends - Warwick University
At last, kayaking again. Water was a distinct possibility, and there we were, driving off up to Scotland.

And true to form, there was the right amount of water, rivers were running, but I was ill
I did however have a great time running the Orchy with LUCC before illness hit.
Then on a course - BCU Student Safety Course. It was an excellent course, but swimming in the snow is something I don’t want to repeat in the near future. I learnt a few things, and also decided that there weren’t as many holes in my knowledge as I thought, which is always nice.
Then it was Andy R’s 21st…..
Lessons Learnt: Don’t headbutt your hand with your helmet if you decide to drive a convertible mini off a 6.5m waterfall. (You break it…)
It was then onto join Warwick…

Due to the broken hand, I was forced to use hand paddles the day after the waterfall incident, but the sun was out, and Hayden, being as ass, decided not to wear much on the river.
P.s. Proof that you can use kayaks as a building material….
