First of all - Hi to everyone on the NG - it's my first
post here.

Have been heavily involved in kayaking and mountain biking
for the past 10 years or so since settling down after
leaving the forces. But now getting back into my first
outdoor pursuit - hill walking. And I must say it's great
to be back in the hills again. It's just a pity I'm living
down south when all the great hill walking is 'back home'
in Scotland!

Anyway - to answer the query about canoeing / kayaking I'd
strongly advise getting in touch with a BCU affiliated club.
The main BCU website is bcu.org.ukbcu.org.ukOpen ↗ and clubs in
the Eastern region are listed at
bcu.org.ukregionseastern.htmlOpen ↗ Most clubs
welcome beginners - of all ages regardless. If there's
nothing local to where you are contact the Regional Coaching
Officer (RCO) - also listed on the region page - who will be
able to help / advise you I'm sure.

Have fun and enjoy Gordon
