Students arrive in sunny Somerset, unload their kit, get orientated and generally well prepared for the work ahead of them.
That afternoon we head down to a nearby stream to learn how to measure the characteristics of a river. Please note how much work Ethan is actually doing, one of life’s leaders that one.
Those that can, teach, those that can’t...
DAY TWO; River measurement proper begins, the weather at this time is not toooooo bad!
However, conditions soon deteriorate. Spirits remain stable, no student pulls a sicky, takes a dive or otherwise seeks to cop out!
Lunch is taken in surprisingly cosy surroundings.
Alarmingly, Local footpaths begin to disappear! Rain intensity has been increasing for some time!
Last year the river trickled out beneath this stone berm on Kilve beach! This part of the river was unmeasureable.
