Description
Andy emptying his boat as he was "trying to get to the bank"... As he "placed" the boat down (with drain bung detached, it slid away from him as it was on a "slope"... We all watched it, followed by Andy's hesitation of what to do, followed by some swearing (seeing the Burn float towards the rapids) & then saw Andy jump into the river Ninja style and swimming to it, before it hit the first rapid! Anyway the result... Andy lost his bung, as he went for the boat instead... Truely funny sight though!
Excuse
I think the fact of seeing a £600 New Small Burn float towards some very rocky rapids, without it's driver, lead to the swim!
