06/05/08 The first of the stag do video's is now available for your viewing on You Tube. The Canyoning was a blast and finished off the weekend with style.

I thought i was best just to add the whole of this email for your viewing: Hello, My name is Jenny and I am working in the development department of Tigress a television production company here in the U.K. We are a production company that specialise in adventure, science and wildlife documentaries. I have a rather strange request. I am looking for people from the U.K who are planning on a big move abroad (for a year or more) to possibly film for a television series. We are looking for people who are fulfilling a dream and making a live changing move. We would like to film people who are going abroad to live a real outdoor life. I thought as you run a web-site specialising in outdoor activities you may know of people that are about to embark on an adventure. I know it's a long-shot but if you can think of anyone then please could you ask them to contact me at Tigress. Thank-you in advance. Jennifer Davies | Development. tigress productions | 2 St Paul's Road | Clifton | Bristol | BS8 1LT | UK, T: +44 (0)117 933 5633 F: +44 (0)117 933 5666, E: jenniferdavies @tigressproductions.co.uk, www.tigressproductions.co.uk |
06/03/08 What a great couple of weeks of weather. The Severn bore once again produced a few great rides and a few great falls too! Anyway see for yourself on our latest bore video, which includes various head cam angles! ;0) Whilst ont the Severn there is a great website you should check out if you want to know more about why we are so against the Severn Barrage idea that is being researched by the government. May change your views somewhat! |
A few walks to catch up on including two in the Cotswold's: The Whitewater rafting and Canyoning in April has been booked and we have been given the go ahead to use our head cams so hopefully a few great clips from that. It is promising to be a great weekend. For more information check out the following Cinnamon-active & the Canolfan Tryweryn, National Whitewater Centre. More planned trips coming soon so stay tuned. |

14/01/08 Well after a very wet couple of weeks we finally had a sprinkle of snow in the Brecon beacons. So with training in mind myself and Andy McCaughey headed there on the weekend and had a great day walking the Pen y fan Horseshoe. Myself and Vicky also managed a walk around Dryham Park and the surrounding area in the Cotswold's. Finally we are off to attempt Aconcagua this weekend. After all of the preparation and training we have all put in spirits are high so wish us luck! See you all soon and stay tuned for a full trip report in mid feb!T.Bawn |
