You'll like this one, Dik:-
A man, with no arms and legs was lying on a blanket on a beach.
Three beautiful woman were walking by felt sorry for him
the first one went up to him and asked if he`d ever been kissed. he replied "No" so she gave him a lovely kiss.
The second one asked him if he`d ever been hugged and he replied "No" so she gave him a warming hug
The third girl asked him if he`d ever been f**ked he replied "No"
She said "well you will be soon the tide is coming in !"
evening dik,
with regard to the initial question!
yep do a bit of both kayak if have to,
(but been teaching both since was 19 ..yes that is a while)
though prefer an open boat given the chance, here, france italy.
usually do a trip down the teeed twice a year, and the spey once a year, if any good to you.
i went out for a an evening paddle on loch ken a couple of days ago. so beautiful and peaceful. was on a SOT kayak. nice and stable - even managed to make a phone call from the middle of the water.
yeti - is that the scottish canoe association paddle down the spey? i think it is coming up soon. i am not skilled enough to tackle that this year, but tempted to give it a go one year. esp in an open canoe.
i have a wenonah prospector in the back needing repairs. new seat and brace, the curly bit of wood for portage.
if you are ever over this way and fancy a paddle, drop me a pm.
paddle om spey is normally just like minded friends, bit too indipendant for "organised" ones.
prospector is a good choice of open boat!
the "curly" bit for portage is the central yoke?
both yokes and seats are easily available and piece of cake to change, do yourself a favour and fit a nealing thwart too?
lots easier on big water and saves your back!
actually think i may be on song of the paddle !!
though may have been a while!
