Peak Paddling


Couldn't manage to find a paddle / surf / windsurf board that can also be used as a kayak, so I plumped for a top-of-the-range, inflatable paddle board that doubles as a kayak. Got it from Bath on Facebook Market - 2nd hand and hardly used. A bargain.


We're off to the Peak District next week for a break and I'm sure we'll find a stretch of water somewhere to trial it on - the River Derwent or the Goyt Valley. The Derwent isn't far from Shrigley Hall, where we're staying. In fact there's a lake opposite, but you're not meant to go in it. Same goes for the lake in the Chatsworth Estate, but not being allowed to enter a body of water is a red rag to Hayley, who has previous on this matter.
