A Portishead man is waiting to see if he's set a new world record - after he and a friend paddled down the River Avon in bathtubs for charity.

Rob Knott - and Ric Canham from Axbridge, who had to abandon his attempt - raised more than 4 thousand pounds for the Alzheimer's Society and the Portishead Lifeboat Trust with their unusual 17 mile challenge on Sunday - which Rob completed in 13 hours and 45 minutes.
