Hey there,

Just joined after recommendation from those I met at Graeme's funeral on Monday. Good to meet some new friends/like minded individuals although wish it hadn't been under such sad circumstances.

A bit about me....
Living up near Aviemore, work as a trainee paramedic, have been boating for 15yrs + and have been coaching for 10yrs +.

Dare I say it -I coach and paddle most disciplines! Boat collection includes: open canoe (obviously or you'd not allow me in here), sea kayak, surf kayak, slalom kayak & a collection of river kayaks too. Used to freelance coach for a living until I saw sense of getting back to paddling just for fun (though still get a buzz out of coaching). Live in a place where I'm never far from a patch of paddleble water whether that be flat, WW or salty!

Also LOVE horses & dogs but I'll try and keep chat & photos to water based actvities only ;o)

We're not fussed here, as long as they get out on the water anyone's welcome... Wink

Horse and Dog chat goes in 'The Snug' (along with Fishing, another canoe related activity... Rolleyes )

Feel free to pull up a chair and jump right in... None of us bite... except Jammy that is.... Tongue

Cheers
