Guys
I know Di was planning to post this , but at the risk of stealing her thunder I thought that members should be given as much notice as possible.
This is a lovely trip down a beautiful river, which is very suitable as your first whitewater trip. We all stay in a cosy bunkhouse , cook together, and generally have a very good social time of things. If there is insufficient water in the river we tend to go surfing at Woolacombe sands , which can be just as enjoyable.
Although suitable as a first white water trip , you must have had some experience of moving water previously, at least at Yalding, and should be confident about exiting the boat in cold water, (or better still staying in until rescued, or even better still rolling yourself back up)
If you would like a place on this trip please let me or Di know asap. If in doubt about your abilities, again please come and see me at a pool session.
