Woot!


I think we need to nominate some more people. Peter has buckets of paddling experience and would do a great job. On the other hand I would be a fantastic opportunity for someone to gain committee experience, which will be invaluable to the the committee in coming years.

If there are people who are interested in being on the committee next year then please give people a bit of a nudge to nominate you.


Anyway, I shouldn't just preach - so I would like to nominate:

Andy Jeffers.


Of all the freshers (and others) that I've met I think that there are lots of other great candidates, but I'm sure that others will nominate them (Right?).

Best of luck to Peter, Andy and anyone else who gets nominated...or thinks that they should be!
