Myself , my dog and my good friend Paul are going to be embarking on a bit of a journey on the 28th May

We plan to Kayak from Belleek in County Fermanagh to Limerick city approx 250 miles over ten days via the Erne Shannon waterway

We are looking for sponsorship, my chosen charity is Casting for Recovery

If you are willing to sponsor us ..no matter how little ..it would be much appreciated by CFR

I'm hoping to get a pay pal account set up especially for the trip ..details to follow

I'm working on a gps tracking device which will broadcast out location live onto my blog ..again details to follow

Cheers

Andy

BTW, that Woodford river section of the Shannon Erne link better not be in flood or yee guys will have to paddle hard just to stay still. Pray for a dry May and keep a good eye out for poachers.
