Just to refer back to Carl's post, where do you people get the time to go paddling midweek?! I must be in the wrong course... :P

We discussed all of the pros & cons of our descision prior to posting. The decision was made - end of story.

Allio - your point about rivers is not valid. The type of rivers that rise and fall so quickly are generally of a grade not paddled by people who use club gear. By way of proof, all of the private trips that have occured so far this year have been (as danny says) to Wrens or Sluice.

We're being pro-active here - I think its great that we noticed that things were spiralling out of our control and that we arrested it before any unfortunate incident occured. This whole episode shows the power of the club: anyone in this club, and especially on the water with the club, is assured that their safety is of prime importance in all of our decisions

It seems that the club is being run by a bunch of old foggies trying to stop all the young folks having a good time. I think the time has come once again for a call to arms.

Your threats of violence will not silence the ITC.
We demand that an AGM be held before the summer break so that the old committee may be impeached and a new committee elected in their place.

So be it - March it is. vote early-vote often , the ITC will have its day!

I would go paddling, but I have yet to pass the swim test, pool test or my level one and thus am banned from river trips.

But maybe this committee isn't so bad offering marshmallows to members on trips, or is it members on trips having marshmallows?

What I want to know is:

What has Tom done or shown to justify the moniker "big" Tom.

I also want to know where each of the candidates stand on the issues....
