@SteveBackshall There used to be two in Oxford, one upstream of Folly Bridge and another downstream of Iffle lock. I think a cold winter was a bit too much for them.

Thames terrapin, for 8 years since I moved Thameside, I’ve been hearing about a terrapin who basks on the same log on an island upstream. I’ve had odd encounterswith invasive species; a Capybara Hambledon, a coati going through Marlow bins, I wonder what this fella’s story is?

NEW LEVEL 5 APPRENTICESHIP! This is an exciting opportunity for an Outdoor Instructor to join the team at Longtown @CentreLongtown whilst working towards a Level 5 Apprenticeship. Find out more here: channeltraining.co.uk/longtown-level… #apprenticeships #apprentice

@BBFtours If remember correctly wasn't this how our kit cleaning used to go? In those days we went to the pub for insperation. 🍻

It’s three hours since I first sat down to finish this essay. I’ve polished the desk, read a multitude of unrelated articles, tidied the drawers, even fitted in some light gardening. Anything but write a single word. #procrastinate🥴

@BBFtours What non of them available as an eBook! How very historical. 😆

Oh dear, I seem to have inadvertently ordered an entire box of books from a library clearance.🥴 Now to discretely camouflage them amongst the others before they’re spotted.😇

@Hill_End @mburtonphoto I like the idea of having some horses, a whole new activity.

Hill End through the years! It's always wonderful to be sent photos and films from previous decades - huge thanks to Mick Ackrill for sharing this very rural-looking postcard from the 1960s and @mburtonphoto for some brilliant cinefilm from a similar era youtu.be/bQz7Am0rPVc

@sascampaigns have 4 more inland locations on the #SaferSeasRiversService.....this time at locations around Oxford. We'll be providing notification when sewage is discharged so swimmers, paddlers and water lovers know when it's safe to go into the water. #EndSewagePollution

An unbelievable effort from all the volunteers at Kingfisher to get this done, but they got there. Completely brilliant.

@MarkLygo @OxfordshireCC I heard you needed one of the children to rescue you? May be just a rumour.

Enjoyed the afternoon out sailing with the CICC as one of the corporate parents. #fun #teamwork #caring #social @OxfordshireCC @OxfordshireCC

@emilysmithLD @activeoxon @WhiteHorseDC @GoPaddlingInfo Everyone is built like a paddler, that's the great thing everyone can have a go.

@OutdoorRog @activeoxon @WhiteHorseDC @GoPaddlingInfo Thanks! I always remember you saying I was 'built like a paddler'!! so about time I got on the river 😉

Our first canoeing experience today in beautiful #Abingdon followed by coffee at Annie's at the Boat House @activeoxon @WhiteHorseDC We are hooked and looking for ideas for where else to canoe/kayak locally...

We’re supporting IOL Member and education charity @FieldStudiesC who are posting thousands of free field wildlife identification guides to connect people aged 16-25 with wildlife this summer. Register here bit.ly/3ytPCpB

Calling outdoor educators! Closing date Friday 14 May 🌳🦟🦋 #outdoorlearning #jobopportunity #JobVacancy #TeachingJobs

@sarah_lawfull In the loo with the door locked so the children can't get to me!

Where is your favourite spot to sit and think? #Nature #ForestSchool #outdoors #MotherNature #biophilia #woodlands #ConnectWithNature

@ChannelTraining Good luck for tonight Heather

It's TODAY! Good luck, Heather!! Heather completed her L3 Outdoor Activity #apprenticeship at the Riverside Centre and passed with a distinction. What an incredible achievement and a very deserving awards finalist. #OAAwards2021

So awful, what a blow both for the centre and the young people who so deserved these missed opportunities. Please keep your eyes peeled both for a minibus and the kit.

Thanks to @PaulSmith_coach for a really good session yesterday with the team, getting to grips with the in's & out's of checking equipment and PPE.

@MuddyKneesFS I had an ex-police speed camera van, it came with the windows and floor done in the back, also never driven over the speed limit 😉 still had it's number on the roof.

Getting a van to convert into a #ForestSchool workshop/occasional camper, so excited I can’t even begin to explain!! Anyone recommend any good blogs/forums/people to follow for DIY conversions?
