Graduation and gearing up for my next adventure....

It's officially over, I've finally graduated! I had a great day the other week with my graduation ceremony in the morning followed by the Grad Ball in the evening.

Me and my housemates, Laura and Faye

Now that that's all over and done with I'm getting ready for my next trip away; the World Cup of Freestyle Kayaking kicking off in the city of Prague in the Czech Republic in a couple of weeks time. More can be found out about these events here www.kayaksession.com. I'm hoping that I'll be able to put up regular updates from the road and results from the competitions.

In other news, I'd like to congratulate my friends, Flea Jarvie, James Reeves, and Dave Bainbridge for taking Gold in their respective classes in the European Championships held in Spain last week. Although I was reserve for the senior women's team, I decided not to make the trip out there and save my cash for my upcoming trips instead, I do wish I could've been there to see those guys winning! Congratulations to all the other Brits would took medals and made finals, it sounded like they were a force to be reckon with. For photos and more about the event, check out www.ukfreestyle.com

I've finally finished my new site I've been working on for a while now. Thanks to Tim Rowland for getting it uploaded for for me.

Nottingham Life

Having now moved out of my house in Loughborough and finishing my degree (I got a 2.1 by the way!), for the past few weeks I've been living out of my new van up at my work in Nottingham. There's a couple of boaters who base themselves here for the summer season and when we're not paddling there's usually some kind of misadventure to be had.

This week, Pringle and Zach had the great idea of constructing a tarp slide down the side of the hills at the white water course into the canal. Obviously, carnage and nakedness followed.

Highly entertained onlookers

I've got a couple more weeks hanging out here until I head out to the World Cup competitions then I've got a week back in the UK to sort myself out before heading out to Uganda for five months! Here's a few shots of my awesome van that my home for the time being. It's pretty distinctive so if you see me around, come say hi!
