Colin's Last Paddle...

As a single man! Yep as his nuptials were fast approaching and there was no opportunity to squeeze in a paddle on the big day it seemed right and proper that we should gather at the WW course in Nottingham to give Mr Fisher the watery send off in to matrimony that he deserved. In attendance were fellow test teamers Steve 'Black Dog' Butler, Alpkit Jim, CKUK's Editorial Assistant and super-coach Ross and of course me. As the sun set we had a great time flobbing about on the course and making a balls up of all the latest moves. Apart from Rossco that is, he is a VERY good freestyler indeed! After a great session in the Tardis Hole it was off and changed and over to the Chippy at Trent Bridge for a celebratory sit-down-fish & chip-supper, and some good banter about 'speeches', before heading off on our separate ways. The next time we'd see Col, he'd of swapped his dry top for a sharp looking morning suit and would be standing at an alter rather than a river bank!
