Week 5 IHS

A VERY cold day at Kinghorn Loch today, it was life jackets on at all times for anyone near the waters edge today, due to the icy conditions. Safety first, and as ever the club were absolutely on top of this. The group did get out on the boat however, Duncan, Glen and Sophie had their first shot at coxing the boat today, and were widely praised by the Rowing Club volunteers for their efforts. Parts of the loch were frozen, and birds could be seen walking on the ice. We also had some really great displays of the geese flying past from the loch side. It's great to nature in all it's glory during all the seasons. We went back to the shed at the Ecology centre for hot chocolate and a heat before the hot rolls arrived. We all had a good chat about how today had gone. Volunteer Peter has his 80th birthday on Saturday, so we sang happy birthday and shared birthday cake after our hot rolls. Looking forward to another session next week, the weather looks better than the -3 it was at the loch this morning!
