Six amateur film makers (and in some cases amateur kayakers too) entered their films with the hope of winning fabulous prizes.
Mark Mulrain, newly elected President of Strathclyde Uni Canoe Club kicked off the night with a few pleasant (if occationally mocking) words, before we witnessed the spectacular "Chaos Across Europe", an Alps-09 video made by Ben and Sean.
There we several other video's in the middle, including a surprisingly good picture show by Becs, and a minute of idiotic carnage entered by Chris Morrison (this was played numerous times and had the assembled crown in histerics!
Then it was time for mine to be played - unfortunately timed, as my video tried to make the Europe Trip seem epic, while Ben and Sean's version made fun of it.
Tim Hamlet's video of kayaking in Vietnam was the last to show, and it was undoubtedly the best.
Tim's victory was well earned, and Sean and Ben's video came a respectable second. I suspect mine may have done better had my music been more in line with everyone's taste.
However, it was an excellent night, and Gordon's photo where he's hanging off Crack of Dawn on the Etive made a return, so all was well!
