    Had a really enjoyable day and learnt stuff too!! Started at 11 with basic knowledge of the equipment then a couple of hours on the water being shown different paddling techniques and getting used to being in the kayak, After a break for lunch went on a trip up river and back learning other techniques but also just enjoying the river. Our instructor Dan was very knowledgeable and good fun and all the other members of staff we very pleasant and helpful. Facilities at the centre we very good - showers toilets etc. Great as an introduction to kayaking or just a fun day out.

    My best friend and I did this to celebrate my 20th birthday...the staff were all really friendly and the jump itself was as fun as it was scary! We both agree we want to jump again, but separately for more of a buzz!

    Done the bungee jump this summer with one of my dear friends, possibly as crazy as I am just as a farewell London day out! Looking back now, I guess living for 3 months in the country side (even if next to one of the most spectacular beaches in the country) was a little crazier decision, so back to city life now. The day was a complete success: waking up in the morning after a late shift and a little after work session, a relatively short train journey and taxi to the lake, the jump, the company I had... All was perfect! Staff on the day were really nice and friendly and made the whole experience look like a very easy and accesible thing to do. The jump was absolutely amazing: strapped to a crazy girl, up on a crane, lifted 150ft over the lake and after the plunge! The feeling is mind blowing!!! I was laughing like a maniac all the way down, then back up, and down again! It was awesome! All I could say when we made it safely down was: "I want back again!!!". Poor girl was half deaf from my laughter, but she loved every second of the experience! The location is quite pretty and we took the oportunity to have our packed lunches by the lake in a hidden little spot, soaked it with cider (bare in mind, it is a good walk to find booze around there), later soaked with rain so my waterproofs came in handy, though quite tricky to share! After the rain finally chased us away from the lake we made it in to town and started what proved to be a very tricky pub crawl: not too many nice pubs around (unless you're 18 and like music banging in your ears) so after a few attempts (I do have to say we did find one with a pretty beer garden) we were headed back to London and to my old local on Connaught Street! The day was a real success; it had everything a bloke would want: a little adrenaline rush, a girl, and the pub crawl! Looking forward for the next jump, and I am quite disapointed with myself for missing the 300ft one! Sometimes work does get in the way of having fun! But highly recomended experience! Can make a very good day of it if planned right! And for a tandem jump: cheap as chips! Go for it!
