On Saturday we were out on the river with the Falcon canoers and kayakers for the Paddle UK Big Paddle Clean Up.

The weather forecast looked dodgy, so we stayed relatively close to the club house this time, tackling the Longbridges Nature Reserve, Folly Bridge area, and Aston's Eyot. We persevered through rain showers for a huge haul of the usual cans, bottles and (normal for Oxford) drowned bikes. Special mention to the picnic chair halfway up a tree which we managed to hook down!

It was great to refresh the skills we learnt from the canoers last month, while doing a good deed. Good work paddlers!
