Never Say Never Again

Gwennap Head, Land's End, Cornwall

The sun went down, sinking into the ocean to the west of England’s most westerly point. We were there. It was wonderful.

I’ve now confidently and definitively announced that I’ve finished working on South West Sea Kayaking at least half a dozen times! Every time I dare to stick my head above the parapet and say this, another round of jobs pops up out of the blue. Recent days have seen me putting in some considerable hours reviewing and annotating the page layouts and maps put together by the Pesda team, compiling an index (yawn), scribbling the blurb for the back cover, writing bumf about emergency services, as well as a hundred other little tasks. Pesda have been incredibly busy on the book, I’m frankly amazed by the quality of the work that they’ve produced in a relatively short space of time.

Today Pesda sent it all to the printers. This time, the book really is finished.

Touch wood.

About

During 2006-8 I researched, photographed and wrote a sea kayaking guide to the South West of England; from the Bristol Channel to the Isle of Wight. I have used this blog to keep folk updated as to my progress and to reveal some of the wonderful scenery, culture and wildlife of this little corner of England.
