Hi Charlie I wanted to thank you for all your help with our trip. It was the best of our expeditions yet. We've paddled in the UK, Scandanavia and eastern Europe but this years expedition topped the others. The wild campsites were just what we like (wild!), the scenery was stunning and the paddling challenging. I've never paddled a navigation before- the weirs were glorius- even the two that I sank in! and the locks provided easy portages to those that looked too fierce. I'm back in London now, bored and wishng I was back out the river. The hostel in New Ross was lovely and Paddy taxi'd us into town in the evening at a very good rate. I hope the rest of the season goes well for you. We will definitely consider Ireland again next year for our 10th trip- have you got any more rivers in your neck of the woods? Kind regards Mark
