Comments: Hi Dave et al. I just want to say a big thank you to everyone at Adventure21 for the great day my group had on July 24th. From the hectic and ever changing build-up, to the activities on the day, you were flexible and very helpful. Mark the instructor was excellent, fitted into our group dynamic and helped to make the activities really fun. I, the group, and most importantly the Stag, had a fantastic day. Thanks again for contributing to what was a superb weekend. I will not hesitate to recommend you to others and can see myself using you again. Kind regards Jonathan Ellsmore

Comments: Dear Dave Its been just over a week now since we have been back in the office but we did not get to look at the photos and footage until yesterday in our Board of Directors meeting. It brought back many a memory and made us all laugh out load as we recalled some of the incidents. I want to thank you for all your support and encouragement that enabled the activities to go so well.
It gave us an insight into each other that we were lacking and allowed us to stretch each other in different ways. I was particularly impressed with the way you were able to coax Heshmat into becoming ‘a have a go hero’ and also how you helped Jehangir deal with his fear of heights.
I am tempted to say that my personal limits were not reached but would worry that you would crank it up too much. Having said that I am looking forward to the next time our paths cross. Kind Regards Shakil

Comments: Dave, Apologies for the delay; but work and other issues...Firstly, as touched on: thank you so much for being flexible and for orgainising a great day... I think I might be guilty of enjoying it more than Miles/Rees...It was certainly what I wanted for Miles and to "expose" him to new things; sadly, I have since learned that his first "cold-water-shock" sat under the waterfall, did make him panic a little... We should have made him experience the "shock" again when we jumped off a smaller "rock" and were submerged, to let him get use to the feeling, as he might have attempted more later; but he had a great time... Funny how even though still a "shock" we do take that "rush" from the cold water for granted. Miles loved climbing up the waterfalls, especially on a rope. I have to say, what a great group/team we joined and they made us very welcome... I appreciate your "offer" to come-up with a "Day" and looking at the calendar, I think we may venture back to the Lakes either the first or second week in August: I am sure you will be very busy, and would expect to make a "contribution" towards this - and to get the day right! If this might work for you, I will try to find some other people to join us on our trip to the Lakes and perhaps they will come with us on an Adveture21 day...On that note: I love the fact that "Safety" is top of the list and once you have "Assessed-the-risk" - you have fun within the boundaries. I wondered how you were positioned around "School Trips" as I have a number of friends who manage PE Depts, etc and I would love to recommend you to them... Do you have "cover"/certification etc? Thanks again and speak soon! John & Miles

Please extend our thanks to the team for their hard work on the day, and a personal thank you to yourself for your assistance booking this great day.

Dave and his team go that extra mile to ensure you have fun and want to comeback again and again... This is the Best Value Adventure you'll find in the Lakes: forget the price value is measured in the effort these guys put into your day... I cannot say enough to thank them for turning around what could have been a disaster - all my fault - and putting the biggest smile on my Son's face and that sense of achievement after we'd finished... BRILLIANT! WONDERFUL! PROFESSIONAL! EXHILLERATING! AMAZING!

Comments: Dave, Just to thank your organisation and Jon for last Saturday. All 6 of us had a brilliant day, The sun shone, the feet got wet , the canoe`s went round in circles a few times till we got ourselves shipshape, the food cooked by the side of lake tasted the best ever and I guess 6 guys got a taste of the outdoor bushcraft for the first time. Jon was very patient with us novices and we still have all our fingers after the axe cutting instruction. And to top it all, to finish with a pint in 'The Sun' made it a complete experience. Can throughly recommend the day as a special gift to some very undeserving blokes. Thanks again. Jim Wright

Full marks to Dave and his team, they really know how to make these events a big success. I would recommend this to anyone who has never tried it and I would recommend Adventure 21 as the company to do it with. Can't wait to come back and do it again, roll on the next stag do.

Comments: Hello Dave,what can I say ,the day was fantastic George and myself had a really good day, we have both learnt a lot about basic fishing ,casting and bait and types off floats and methods of fishing, George did not stop talking about the day and loved every minute, we did catch a jack pike around 6/7lb which was great. As for Duck, well he is very helpful and very patient and a really nice chap and he was easy to chat and get along with, so there was never a quite moment with nothing to say. I think he will become a very important member of the team. If it were possible George would like to send Duck a picture of them both but unsure if you have an address for Duck. Anyway thanks for a great day fishing, it was great. Steve Poole

Comments: Hi
I've just come back from a stag weekend in Coniston where Dave and Paul led a group of us gorge scrambling and canyoning (i was lovingly referred to as Gok Kwan, oddly, not for the first time!) - I just wanted to drop you a line to say a massive thank you for an absolutely brilliant time! I think when we all got back to the carpark in Coniston, we were shivering more than any of us have for months and wanted to get as warm as possible as quickly as possible so we neglected to say thanks and goodbye, but in case you were concerned we may not have had a good time, we all loved it and were recounting tales throughout the curry on Saturday evening. The suggestion that the stag be pushed into an underground cave was ingenious banter! It was great fun, exhilerating, rewarding and more harcore than most of us had expected, and Dave, Paul and Sam all did a fantastic job of making sure we enjoyed ourselves.
I'll be sure to keep Adventure 21 in mind for future works & social events.
Thanks again

Company: 5th Dec 09 Stag party in the Lake District
Comments: Hi Dave, I'd just like to say a big thanks for the activities on Saturday. The consensus was that everyone really enjoyed the weekend and the activities in particular. You certainly completed the brief of making sure we were all knackered by the end of the day; most of the guys still felt like they had water flowing over their legs when they got into bed at ..... some time or other in the morning. We were really pleased to be able to do the gorge scrambling despite the weather, a little risk makes these things all the more enjoyable and I returned 10 people relatively unscathed back to their homes on Sunday; so no awkward conversations about why Timmy is currently being fished out of a river somewhere! I'd love to come back some time as would the other guys but we'll probably save it for the summer when we all have a bit more time; I'd like to point out I am in no way wimping out of going swimming in snow melt again.... All the best and I hope you get some good weather, Regards, Mark

We found that the instructors were all encouraging, friendly and patient. A lot of our learners have very low level English but they all coped well with the instructors, which shows what wonderfull instructors you have. Thankyou very much on behalf of all the students and staff from ESOL.

Just a short note to say many thanks from all at this year's 212 Camp for another fantastic "Adventure 21" experience.
The boys (and staff, inc. me) had a great time. The gorge at Rydall was as good as you suggested last year and the rock pool jumping was a enjoyable finish to the day. Myself and fellow officers particularly enjoyed the "higher" jumps, which made the boys a little envious and wishing they were 18! Something for them to look forward to when they become officers. Please pass on our thanks to your guys.
For Summer 2010 we are heading further south (Northamptonshire) so wont have the chance to catch up next year, though I expect that we will be back in Lancashire/Lake District in future years!
Many thanks again.
Regards
Gregor.

Comments: Hi Dave & Kety, Just letting you both know what an excellent day we all had on Thurs 24th May with Dave. Dave was fantastic he made the day exciting, fun, and challenging. Pushing us all just the right amount to do things i think we all wouldn't have imagined we'd be able to do. I personally was proud of myself for doing the rock climbing up waterfalls (even though Dave had to hold on to me most of the time due to weak arms and short legs!! Hope i wasn't too heavy!), and also jumping off the waterfall at the end. Garry was also proud of himself for overcoming his fear of water during the whole day but especially at the end. Thanks Dave for being excellent in this situation. Ginny really enjoyed herself, and as Dave probably gathered both me and Ginny are quite competitive, you blokes could have let us win the canoeing!! Looking forward to seeing the photos, imagining all sorts especially ones where we climbed up waterfall!! Tracy, Garry, and Ginny

Comments: Dear Kety, Sorry for not writing to you last week but unfortunately it was straight back to work... Anyway, I am just writing to say many thanks for organising a fantastic day of activities for my stag do on Sat 13May in Coniston. The ghyll scrambling, aquaseiling and canyonning worked a treat and everyone really enjoyed themselves once they got over their initial fears! I was also extremely impressed with both Joel and Mike who were very professional and great guys as well. There were a few other groups on Church Beck that day and it was also obvious that we were the best kitted out for the day and having the most fun. I've already had requests to organise something similar next year... Many thanks once again to you, Dave, Joel & Mike. Warm regards, Stevebr

Comments: I, like Bob Johnson have just returned from a fantastic weekend wild camping!! It's what life is all about, even if I didn't have my fix of popcorn! I must have a word with that Bob, he's a cheeky fellow. Must advise on food content next time, the lack of sausages for breakfast was shameful! Having said that the Brothers Firth and Mark, were sterling instructors, even if we did use a mini blow torch to light the fire! When's the next one...that's what I want to know, it's well worth the 8hr drive to take part in an exhilirating weekend! Thanks for everything. Miranda (note the spelling Bob.

Even Maranda had a good time and she usually only eats pop corn. Jolly good show will you let here come again? The professionalism, commitment, and dedication to duty of John and Dave were impressive. Shame about Mark's weak paddling though.
Thanks again,
Bob
