However, one thing i can do paddle, albeit badly, and you can join in on the Christmas paddle. Its happening on Saturday, the same day as the meal so you will be nice and hungry after a day on the river. It will be a river suitable for everyone.And if paddling the river wasn't fun enough, we will be doing fancy dress, whoever can make themselves or their boat look the most Christmassy wins!
