The river is currently red-flagged and boats are staying put.

Today’s sunshine would have been brilliant for the Dragon Boat racing, but the river is just too high and dangerous and so the Dragon Boat Racing has been postponed to a date later in the year. White water rafting would have been more appropriate up near the weir.

The ground also would have been too soft to drive across without the aid of tractors.

I look forward to seeing the Dragon Boats back on September 9th – which I believe is the revised date.
