Last Nights Drunken Uber Rant...

gp glad things have worked out for you sometimes you jus feel better for saying it and as bob said this is a great place for that ...you have given many many people valuable help for such a long time on here (see i do a bit of lurking as well) so it was nice in a way that you felt able to have a moan

Thanks El, thats very kind of you. I'm all mellow now. Finished my canoe course today (today was about big, open native american canoes, yesterday was about kayaks). I managed not to capsize today (except at the end, where I did a deliberate one so that the instructor could demonstrate rescue technique), and it was a very serene day, bobbing up and down on the lake alone with my thoughts (I was allowed off on my own for a little while).

So although I'm completly knackered and every muscle hurts I feel very chilled. I've had a long hot shower, I've got a 'cd sounds of the natural world' playing, so the room is full of the sounds of crickets and frogs and babbling brooks, I have a can of lager that has been in the fridge for a week, and I'm very happy and content. I don't know what all the fuss was about, honestly...

I seem to have sprained my wrist with all that paddle action too...

fours days later and I still can't bend my wrist.
