Title: Friday Paddling: Semester 2
Post by: Tiny Tim on December 11, 2011, 16:18:37
So needless to say, studying is proving somewhat difficult today. Which has left me procrastinating, dreaming watching porn (of the kayak variety). This brings me to the crux of my post. I don't have college on Fridays next semester! So does anyone else have this delightful gift from the river gods? Anyone keen for boating on Fridays?
Just to whet your appetite, a nice little video from youtube... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oluUyYpX2Gc

Get someone else to sign you in. That's what lots of people do for sign in classes I have.

Sounds like you're an Ag student, if so, do what Darina says, those classes are a load of bull anyways.

Well I paddle every Sunday or second Sunday. As always people are welcome to join.
P.S. I hope the grammar NAZIs have enjoyed these two posts, their grammar is far more correct than usual.

Great to hear Jodders, it's been far to long since we've been out!

Absolutely great to see such enthusiasm from so many different levels of ability. Looks like there'll be something for everyone! As always the issue isdrivers but there might be improvements on my end there!
THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT

As I end up working most Saturdays I would love to do some Friday or Sunday paddling. Sunday would probably be best. I do have a car but haven't paddled regularly in two/three years.

But even if I never make it, this is a great idea.

Geh, finished at 2 or 6 Fridays next semester. When the days get longer and it's bright after then, so.

Good to hear Kieran.

I'd be on for doing something as long as it didn't interfere with my polo duties.
I'm in the same boat as Bill with the 2 o'clock.
I'd also like to be in the same boat as Bill on the river but here isn't the place for that kind of talk.
