Lowri Davies

It’s a busy time in Lowri-land. After last weekend’s UK River Rescue Symposium, I had half a day to catch my breath at my Dad’s house, where I found this on my doorstep:

A great Fournel-like weir with a beautiful grade 2 ‘gorge’ afterwards. A splendid way to spend an hour.

I got off the water and into my van, heading straight for Liverpool to give the next? in my series of lectures around the country about the Four Borders Expedition. After dinner on Penny Lane, I was shown to a very grand reading room featuring two pianos? – the venue of my talk. After a bit of stress with the projector, everything ran smoothly and I was flattered at how interested in my stories everybody? seemed.? I’d like to thank the guys in Liverpool who organised and hosted this lecture – their write up of the night? can be found here.

Four days of lectures,? cheeky afternoon river runs? and organising the club Alps Trip leads me today. Tomorrow I’m lucky enough to have tickets to watch THE Grand Slam match of the year: Wales v France in the Millenium Stadium . I’m very excited! Sunday I’m coaching in Nottingham before heading to the Lake District for two more Four Borders Talks (Monday in Keswick, Tuesday in Staveley – details here). I then carry on north to the Fort William area for some paddling (and maybe snowboarding?!) before heading back down through the east side of England to do a talk? in York on? March 27th? for? the club that taught me to paddle? (details).

After all that, it’ll be back to the land of the sheep for work – then back to Uni!

Busy? but lots of fun… just the way I like it!
