To be fair, only the occupants of the shit hire car were taken in by this terrible song, hence its notable absence from the video diaryAnyway, Who Let the Dogs Out is a great tune, and has particular resonance for those who went to Canada in 2000. | ||

rowing physics 101 said: Work = force x distance.
Although of course, before anyone else points this out, rowing is much more concerned with useful work done.I.e. pull fucking hard and don't shorten up. | ||

bit on the defensive side said: Ahem. One hour's break to TRY and watch some quality TV in the JCR when one has spent one's entire day either working or rowing is totally acceptable. I didn't even do that in the end and was forced to return to the books by 9.30.
I was indeed watching TV, as were five or six others, so please don't just have a go at me :(
Grump. Anyway, you WERE watching TV (you TV hogging person) and you weren't at Life so what's your excuse? I hope you weren't pretending to work. What am I supposed to be making excuses about ? Work - what does this word mean ? | ||

Honestly, I know that you're all upset that the girls didn't come with you but surely there was some carnage? Those of us who have to stay in and work need something to keep us going you know. If there really isn't any gossip then I suggest you all redeem yourselves sharpish and make some up. | ||

A film crew arrived in Burrell's yesterday (don't know what they're filming, but it looks amateur-ish). Find out what they're filming! And try and get yourself a part as an extra!!! | ||

Today, they set the fire alarm off.
Three times and counting...Twice. | ||

| Not a rowing story, but I found it amusing:
A film crew arrived in Burrell's yesterday (don't know what they're filming, but it looks amateur-ish). They're living in my block, and are generally being annoying. In particular, they are using a smoke machine in one of the rooms in the bottom of Butler House. Today, they set the fire alarm off. Twice. The first time, everybody was gathered outside. Suddenly, one of them asked (in a genuinely suprised voice): "Was that us?!?" The second time, whilst most people were leaving the building, I noticed one of them filming the smoke alarm. He was still filming when we re-enetered a few minutes later. They also asked the porter (who was already pretty annoyed) to turn off the fire alarm for all of Butler House. He was not impressed... | ||

Don't tell me - you're going to have all the records on vinyl, and then play two at once and get their beats to match and then slowly switch from one to another. Or is that too traditional? | ||
