Boat Race times by Bryn - Mon 28th Mar 2005, 4:25pm | |
In the build-up to the race on ITV they said that the Boat Race was timed to take place when the stream was at its quickest. But the BBC website says that Goldie beat OUBC by 3s. So at least one of these has messed up: (i) ITV (for not knowing about tides) (ii) the BBC (for not being able to time a boat race) (iii) Robin Williams (for not being able to pick the fastest crew) (iv) me (for missing something obvious) Can someone in the know help me out?

3rd Annual Pre-Boat Race Pub Crawl by mjb - Sat 26th Mar 2005, 10:31am | |
Sunday service on the trains, meant I arrived at Putney half an hour late, only to find out that the Duke's Head didn't open until 12 anyway. The intrepid group of pub crawlers (Ingers, Graham, Bron, Sarah, me) contented themselves with watching some random boats do practice starts off stakeboats on the river next to us until the pub finally decided to open. Lunch was taken at the Crabtree where Mr. Walker arrived for his habitual late start, followed by Anna and Tom. A push along the Hammersmith bend saw us acquire various extra hangers-on, including Amelia, Catherine, Becca, Henners and Guy and we made it to Cygnet BC for the Blackburn Bonus Pint around 1730 before completing the course a little after 8pm. Back to Blackburn's for pizzas where Graham, perhaps realising he'd finished the pub crawl, promptly fell asleep. Hopefully a fun time was had by all. | |
The justice by Long overdue - Fri 18th Mar 2005, 11:23pm | |
Is there going to be a Justice meeting this term? Or has there been one that has just passed me by in my post BCD haze? (14 replies...) | |
FaT Men for Headship by shocked by Caius - Thu 10th Mar 2005, 7:07pm | |
My Goodness! To help Lilie make up numbers (and finally resurrect my profile on the social scene) I went to formal with the Caius 1st Men last night. Most of them were decent folk, but their captain was pretty much the epitomy of arrogance and the recurring presentation of Headship medals unnecessary. (I apologise for failing the Mission Abduct Dave's Pride by the way.) I suggest to whomever this may concern post Henley, to incorporate in the 1st Men's Lent training a formal swap with their Caius counterparts. There is so much to be said for a race rowed on pure hatred! | |
Plea for Pretty Photos by Rich/Dan - Thu 10th Mar 2005, 2:16pm | |
I'm looking for a photo or two of Cambridge rowing to put into a document that I'm writing. The criteria are: - Must be taken by a club member (i.e. not Jet, so we can use it without copyright issues) - Preferably showing people rowing well - Preferably showing lots of crowds on the bank - Preferably in summer Can anybody help? Separately, if anybody can find a photo thats shows off a company sponsoring one of the boat clubs (e.g. their name very obvious on a splashtop) then that would be fab too. (7 replies...) |
