With the help of our friends at Allerthorpe lake we secured the use of some boats one cold Saturday afternoon in January. This would be a little taster to canoeing, but as it turned out the conditions proved to be more demanding (and probably more realistic) than we hoped. The first two boats set off into the lake - Andy and Jim then Simon and Jason. Feeling a little bit cramped up front both Jim and Simon hadn't realised the boats were back to front and therefore their seats were the wrong way round - oops.
With conditions quite choppy we decided to retreat to the santuary of the pub and celebrate our first wetting...
