Every time we get on the water at Cremorne, whether we paddle into town or up to Putney, we’re bound to come across at least one interesting ‘artefact’ floating along with the tide.
A bit like birdwatching mixed with fishing, we’ve taken up the new hobby* of recording and documenting our most ‘exotic’ finds.
It’s a budding past time, so feel free to join in – next time you come across something different (and preferably rare) on the Thames, do let us know. If you have a waterproof camera please evidence your find with a photo and send it through to us so we can keep a logbook.
Also, if your object isn’t indigenous to the Thames, perhaps consider transporting it back to base safely (i.e. consider your safety, not the object’s) and disposing of it appropriately.
To see what we’ve documented this week, visit our Kayaking London facebook page.
To keep up to date with the most recent finds, follow @KayakingLondon on Twitter. We’ll post to this blog with the most unusual artefacts every now and then.
*Still to be given an appropriate hobby name
you can’t count footballs, tennis balls and coconuts…..did try to get a bike back once, didn’t succeed.
