Have you ever..? Part 1

































Yes. I was 7 and nearly drowned because I couldn't swim then. My brother dived in to save me has I dipped for the final time, and discovered the canal was only 4ft deep. I could have stood up had I tried. Doh.

YES! I fell in Guildford canal while trying to change out of some clothes that I had already got soaked in a nightclub. I was saved by some Canadians of all people!

I must add, I was very, very drunk.:drink: :drink: :drink: :drink: :drink: :drink:

Knew there would be some fun stories out there! I fell in a canal somewhere around the Cheshire RING three summers back. I was pulling the barge in to moor it and I slipped on a wet stone and went in up to my waist in front of several people. :blush: Could have been worse - I could have fallen in up Manchester's Canal Street where the water is six parts water, four parts rentboy love wee. :(

No.

But Paddy in a drunken stupor fell (though he will tell you he was pushed) in the river/canal next to the Compleat Angler in Norwich when we played away there last season. He had to rescued by a kind police man and was sopping wet all the way through the game.

Nope. But I have witnessed a canal incident.. it was on a barge trip up the Avon.. ended with one of the guys hanging from a bridge before falling into the water.

He forgot to duck
