Members trips often go upriver. The
aim is usually to get to a pub for an evening meal, sometimes we have
a barbecue on a beach upriver instead. This king of members trip takes place
perhaps twice each month in the summer.
We may return during the dark, with
head torches if we need to advertise our presence to other
vessels. Paddling at night is a real treat - perfect calm still
water, hear everything, phosphorescence giving a strange light to each
paddle stroke.
Below we are seen camping upriver at
Sharpham and visiting the Maltsters at Tuckenhay.
