Some Teddys Don’t Know When to Quit!

You know how it is… you meet a really nice lady, arrange for a date, and take her to the the Dinghy Dock and look forward to a pleasant evening. Being a Gentleman, you of course offer her a pint of Guinness…what self-respecting guy wouldn’t?
Then she asks – demurely, of course – if she might have “just one more pint.” Sure, she’s a little tipsy, but what self-respecting paddler could turn this cutie down?
Only too late do you come to realize that having paid for dinner and two pints of Guinness (you, being a paddler, of course do not drink), you’re stuck with every dragon boat paddler’s nightmare… an inebriated Teddy!!
Let this be a lesson to you. Just because she’s cute, cuddly and covered with fur doesn’t mean she’s cut out for life with a paddler!
