G'Day Mark, Speed the night before is of the essence so in between watching Dr Who I put together a big pack of cheese and vegemite sandwiches, or cheese and honey sandwiches and maybe a banana or apple or two and just plain water - plenty of calories and fast to put together and its amazing what tastes delicious when you're really hungry. There was a time when we took cream pavlovas and strawberries successfully through the surf. If you get trashed and tumbled fast enough the centrifugal force keeps the pavlova intact. Otherwise....................... Used to carry Fantale toffees as an emergency backup for when totally exhausted. Two toffees per kilometer would usually get me home. It can be an expensive emergency pack, so I gave it away and stick with sesame seed bars which are less dentally challenging - Natalie Wiest has the full story. All the best, PeterO *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
