What is going on around the clyde, thames, the channel? has

there has to be some good paddling going on in gb now? please let

Not a lot of water in most of the rivers up North. The South has
been
threatened with drought orders this summer - so I guess not much down
there either.

Haven't seen a lot of snapping at each other, or maybe I'm getting
immune from it from the regular bloodbaths on uk.rec.scouting and the
little comments here don't have any real impact.

Anyway, backstabbing, whingeing and blaming other people should make
you feel right at home anyway. After all that's what the UK is all
about nowadays :-P

it has been a while. i was wondring about sea kayaking, sailing slows a
little as i know but sea kayaking is alive and well on both canadian
coasts, i know of a couple of silly buggers in newfoundland that will
be scooting around ice bergs and ice flows. they are in dry suits of
course. i have been out twice in february and plan on a paddle this
week end.
wet suit and i even did a roll or two. ( showing off )

the two posts before this looked more like a public gripe page than a
paddling page. i still have no idea, and care less, of what the issue
is. anyway all my best to those still in scotland and around the uk.
