First day of term at Dallam starting my NCFE Level 3 "Certificate for the Outdoors" course.
As expected and unsurprisingly, lots of faff sorting out paperwork for late entrants, but plenty of tea drinking and getting to know each other, the Centre, kit, and Steve and Mark our Director and Instructor. 16 of us starting out, wide range of backgrounds, ages and reasons for taking the course. It will be interesting to see how many of us complete...
Off to Fellfoot (Windermere) in the afternoon, split into kayak and canoeing groups. I deftly avoided the canoes and spent a couple of hours learning how to lift and carry a kayak, which end is the front, what a spray deck does and how to play Quiddich in kayaks!
