Acknowledgements

A big ‘thank you’ to my trusty canyoning team, who frequently turned up to find a boot-camp in place of a holiday – Juliet Morse, Tom Holden, Ed and Helen Hodge, Johan Bengtsson, Euan Major, Mylène Ragioneri, Pete Talling, Fleur Loveridge, Dickon Morris, Becka Lawson, Julian Todd, Bill Miners, Holly Bradley and Noel Snape.

A special thanks must go to Andrew Atkinson for his spectacular photographs and tireless proofreading. He has been a major driving force – always full of enthusiasm even when my own was waning.

Also thanks to Mum and Dad, Tim Haynes, Tony Seddon, Portishead Medical Group and the Severn Deanery, who all helped in one way or another.

Most of all, though, to Ginevra, without whom the idea for a book would never have left the beermat, and who, once it did, gave me a bottomless well of patience and support to draw from.
