PDs Stuff | 
|
| PD Member Since: | October 08 | 
| How I Got Into Paddling: | I was told I’d never make it as a pole vaulter. | 
| Favourite PD Moment: | Too many. Any given moment I’m paddling. | 
| Three words to describe PDs: | We Happy Few. | 
| How Other PDs Describe Stuart: | Maybe something like “it’s not the size of the dog in the fight….it’s the size of the fight in the dog”. Not infering that Stewie is a dog but he welcomes challenges latches on to them like a Bull Terrier and doesn’t let go. A fountain of (obscure) knowledge, Committed (to drinking), Expensive tastes (in sofa’s), Strong of heart, body and mind, Competitive, Smooth talker with a dash of panache with the ladies…, not there’s anything wrong with that! Viking warrior, Braveheart, fun, a good laugh, and a great friend. Keen, Grunter (makes some strange noises during a race), loves the “BLING”, quiet, demure, shy…. kidding! A tree hugger with with hot arms, sturdy boots, a top notch personality and gods gift to seat 10 paddling! |
