Stag do!

Picture taken by Gazman. Being the stag, I was in no position to take any pictures. Though I suppose in retrospect I did have a very fetching Indy manbag to carry a camera in...

I can think of 3 awards I'd like to award from my view of the stag-do:

1. Most competent - dandcmi for his amazingly frantic paddling style which despite being about 20m behind an opposing player in the canoe water polo, still got to the ball ahead of that player. Was definitely the red team's most valuable player and contributor to the 5-2 (was 4-0 at one stage) thrashing of the blue team.

2. Most violent - the testorone pumped male half of the entity known as mattandjules. Best demonstrated when dandcmi had the ball and he leaped kamikaze from his canoe onto dandcmi's canoe and capsized him in order to retrieve the ball. Strangely enough no foul was given, which leads me to suspect that canoe water polo was just invented on the spot by the Bray canoeing instructors.

3. Most Disorganised - Desborg for managing to turn up at the wrong Go-Ape 30 miles to the North. Could also win the award for Most Speedy due to the fact that he managed to catch up with the main stag party group before we started on Go-Ape proper and showed us how to do backwards head-plants on the zip wires.

5-3???!!! More like 5-1! Your team weren't even close to 3!

Read the post gaz, jeez.

Frankly, I didn't think we'd scored any

Yes, yes, some very impressive editing. I still only remember 1... maybe Matt's got a point!

The bit which went 'geez' or the didn't think we'd scored any bit :-D
Surely we must get a sympathy point for the fact that I managed to keep the hat intact for Go-Ape afterwards?
