| Lycra wind hoods | |
|
The inevitable progression to the all-in-one-boat-attached-lycra-bodysuit continues. Just you wait.
Not sure about the foam blocks for the finish though... (1 comment...) | |

|
| Watch some of the Quicktime movies - they're cool. | |
|
| Tideway Slug (again) | |
|
| The slug has a couple of interesting news stories this week - one referring to our 2nd VIII and the top one featuring a gym erging style that is reminiscent of both Mycroft/Coker and some of Din's training sessions... :) | |
|
| Man Beat Horse | |
|
BPBC should enter this next year I think.
Also, does anyone else thing that that This Photo is stonking and sums up FaT's week nicely? :)

| Two Way Cycling On Trinity Street? | |
|
| I think we should bombard them with emails about how one-way cycling is incredibly annoying... | |
|
| Never put your photo on the internet | |
|
The title sums this one up well!
Poor chap! | |
|
| The Alternative Rower | |
|
| Possibly already linked from here somewhere but worth re-visiting. "Archive" includes many of the cartoons that used to be in Regatta. | |

Save yourself buying the real thing (not that I hope any of you do) by generating random yet worrying plausible Daily Mail headlines.

| BBC to axe Boat Race coverage | |
|
| The BBC is going to stop televising the boat race after this year. Clearly this is going to mean a lot less sponsorship money, and probably a resulting drop in standard. Is this going to be good / bad for Cambridge rowing? Discuss :) (3 comments...) | |
|
| With the scenes restored | |
|
Keep watching.
P.S. Try also /24/ for a slightly concerning thing on a similar theme, and /29/ to find out where the Lions are.... (2 comments...) | |

| Teabag Pyramid | |
|
| Doesn't quite rank up there with the legendary beeramid, but in the field of beverage-container constructed wonders of the world it definitely deserves a mention. (1 comment...) | |

| Lust declared virtue, not vice | |
|
Lust has been wrongly branded a vice and should be "reclaimed for humanity" as a life-affirming virtue, according to Cambridge University's Simon Blackburn.
I think this has got to kill any hopes of him getting taken off the incest chart... (8 comments...) | |

| Re-open the Bridge | |
|
| Cutter Ferry (Emma Boathouse) Bridge has been shut since November owing to a structural fault, and the County Council are taking quite some time to re-open it. An online petition will make very little difference, but hey... | |

A few disclaimers.....
* rawd2 sent me this link - I didn't find it myself.
* Of the 38 wrong answers I gave, 36 were after a 5-pint liquid lunch, so I can kid myself than I'm not such a dolt after all.
* Many of the answers rely on making very American-centric assumptions; a few rely on pedantically precise interpretation of the wording; quite a lot rely on pretty loose interpretation of the wording.
* Every answer could be looked up and there's no time-out (that I found - I did leave it over lunch, after all), so you could just look stuff up and get 100% but that would be pretty sad.
* Nonetheless, it's good fun. (16 comments...) | |
