Chasing Rain

Unlike the biblical rains of last year, this summer has seen the usual low low levels more often associated with the UK’s summer. There has been the occasional day of drizzle, but nothing to really bring the rivers into condition for extended periods of time. Nevertheless, a combination of keeping a close eye on the weather and some speculative post-work rain chasing has paid off, and throughout this dry spell I’ve just about managed to satiate that kayakers’ thirst for water that burns inside all of us.
