    Sparked a but of discussion on the main kayaking pages. I don't agree with it frankly. Thought it was a little bit insensitive.

    I haven't read much on it on other sites tbh.

    They got a bit of flack for it but I saw a few young'uns having a bit of a "joy paddle".

    Neal from the kayaking company is organising a clean up for the glens. It'll probably be summer before we can do it.

    I think the entire community will need to pull together for this one.

    Gotta wait till at least lower water to clean up the glens otherwise stuff might be missed
