It seems that my enthusiasm for blogging is wavering, maybe Facebook is taking over? Still since the last time I updated I have been up to all kinds of things; canoeing for both work and pleasure, shooting photos for various projects including a front cover shot for this months Canoe Kayak UK magazine, writing words for my book and for CKUK and doing a lot of testing of next years white water collect from Nookie. Rather than bore the world with words I though I would load up a load a photos as they paint a thousand words. Also of note is the upcoming Thun Riverjam, I have been asked to be the head judge again this year and am presently putting the final touches to the scoring system with event organiser Simon Hirter.

That's me done for now; boat hard, stay safe and see you somewhere nice,
