There are two things to aim at in life: 1 get what you want; and, 2 to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second.

Each time I see the sea, I see once more the sea sees me.

Madagascan mosquito 2 …… Scottish midge 50+. I’m sure they kill by driving you insane as well.

Starbucks ….. an oasis in a barren motorway

Im very much looking forward hot running water, fresh clean clothes and a glass or three of vino tinto. All after the long drive home today

So the plan is White water coaching today with unloaded boats to enhance learning.

The fire crackles with pine resin. The scent fills the air after a long day on the river. Fed and ready for bed. New day beckons.

Dog boy woke me this morning by snuffling my face through the mozi net on our bankside river camp. #Canoe #expedition http://t.co/NDOLMOA

“Are we paddling or are we sleeping? Cos if we are paddling we pack our s**t and we GO!” Kim Sellars’s no messing attitude haha

Hooched up in a hammock in the rain. Dogs happy. Clients are learning stacks about canoe expeditioning. Already asked about more!

Lets go. Let’s boogaloo till we puke. Let’s play those funky tunes that drive us till the Dawn! Time to paddle again!’:0)

Sat having a speyside whisky on the bank with a lovely open fire running. Nice evenings work

Tent sleepy early morning dog boy cuddles. Time to get up and get going. http://t.co/h0yIbUJ

The river Spey is looking almost perfect to paddle right now. Sat at Newtonmore and it’s flowing nicely.

Well I’m off again to scotlands waters. I’ll say hello when I can. Might even send I photo or two. Keep in touch.

A pretty place to pitch your expedition tent. I’m lucky to lead groups in such wild and beautiful places http://t.co/AqT0rgV

Once again 100% of the group enjoyed the caving despite protestations and worries. Gorge walking was fast wet and fun cos it was cold.

Wow just bought one of these for exped entertainment. How can something so small and so cheap be so darn good? http://t.co/Iv4t6Bz
