Diarmuid, we need to have a serious talk. My sources have told me that on missing your first roll attempt, you - now let me get this completely straight - let go of your paddles to try a hand roll instead. Oh dear, where to begin? GAAAAH! Diarmuid upright + no paddles = Diarmuid right back over again. Now, the gear in the skip was silly, but this is just a bad idea!

from now on we will enforce a strict policy of if you go for a hand roll and the river doesn't punch you in the face, first rescuer to you will...

only place that a hand roll could even be thought of is the pool below jacksons (assuming you've lost your paddles)

I second Eoghan's proposal. It's going into the safety and rescue protocol guidebook.

Ah Wednesday paddling...sluice-tastic!

Ah, Diarmuid did very well for his first time at the races! I believe he's the first fresher this year to come out and survive a private trip (I could be wrong) well, joint first, if you count Cormac...which many people don't... ZING!

Great day, Cormac's rescue skills got a sharpening and Diarmuid successfully engineered a scenario for me to test out the rescue capabilities of the boat I was demoing. WIN!

Ah, spring...love is in the air..between me and playboating...and playboats...especially this one boat in particular...by the end of the session I didn't even care it was pink anymore (LIES! That happened about 20 minutes in  :laugh: )
