Stalkbook Name Darragh McCambridge
Nicknames Facelicker, Dazza, Darrrr, Irish Bitch, F.I.B.
Started Paddling Properly around 2007ish, with a horribly inactive club!
Boat of Choice My wee PryanhaS6 - 'Aoife'... or with the money a Wavesport habitat and a project 52! And with more money a Mega Maverick for the surf! Woohoo!
Favourite River The Frozen Spean Gorge has a little bit of my heart, but to be fair anything I've run with the club beats the crap out of my old local; the Upper Bann.
Drink of Choice Jagermeister, Guinness and Duvel... (mixed together... with a dash of lime and a celery stick)
Words of Wisdom There is never going to be a better time in your entire life than University to join a club/society, the resources available for these clubs is amazing. Make the most of every year in Uni, because it's over in no time at all!
Qualifications 1star BCU certificate, Pint of Guinness in under 5secs, survived being an Ultimate Frisbee bum.
Other Comments Mrs Doyle: We should all be very careful on the mainland. There's so much crime around. Arsonists and Muggers everywhere. My friend Mrs O'Dwyer was robbed last week.
Ted: Oh, no! How much did they get?
Mrs Doyle: No, I don't think you understand, Father. She was robbed. They stole her.
