Deep Water Solo   2 comments

Our good friend Alex dropped by this weekend, on a flying visit from Manchester (and his friend coming all the way from Glasgow). Alex is a paddler, but actually came to sample the local limestone. Purbeck and Portland are (apparently) famed for their ‘deep water solo’ free climbs.

Today, we all headed to the Isle of Portland. We paddled, whilst our guests did unpleasant nasty hairy scary things.

  1. Did you see the seal mark? I was there at about 10am watching Liz do the bike leg of a triathlon and there was a seal in the water just under the Whim on this ledge.

  2. Nope, must have missed it. Alex probably killed it when he fell off.

    Heather will be dropping your boat down some time this week, as needed; I’m working in Plymouth for a few days.
