Ndorfin Paddle Race
Margaret is organising the paddling race at 11am on the 16th. There is a kayak and surfski category so it will be similar to the winter series kayak races. Hopefully everyone can take part?

Wednesday 13/12/06 - Paddle Club - Report Back
Margaret, Derek, Estelle, Gary, Dave, Kim, Basil,Geoff and I paddled at Simonstown.
Their was another member of the group who hung about on the far fringes, who did not identify himself in the customary manner and who remained, to me at least, anonomous.
However the mystery paddler was later indentified as a new member of the team at Paddlers. After a paddle and one beer I don't remember much, least of all names. But I think it's "Kyle". Am I right? (No, he wasn't there - it was Sheldon. Ed) Anyway, what's in a name. On behalf of the Simonstown Group and the now famous Blog, I would like to extend a warm welcome to him. Next time just say Hullo. Ok? I might buy something from you one day.
Estelle lost her Kayak somewhere in her Garage but found one to use that looks almost as weird as mine. I think it looked something like Gary's kind of taste in colours.
Dave took Kim and I boulder hopping and led us into the rocks instead of through them. Just now we will all be borrowing Gary's weirdo boat.Ta Dave.
The wind flattened beautifully for a light south wester and a gorgeous evening.
The evening ended when Margaret left our dinner table to go and sit at another table without warning and then decided to heap insults on the restaurant menu . Strange Kid.
Thanks for the paddle and see you on Saturday. Paul
