This should help those of you undecided as to what to get tickets for. Once you have applied just fill in an option, and hopefully others from FaT/BPBC will be there and join you. The codes supplied are for the different sessions, as found on the 2012 website.

| Against which event(s) would you prefer to have the annual pub crawl clashing ? | |
There's rather a lot of other racing around the date of the boat race (26 March), and the crawl will have to clash with something else. | 19 March - WeHoRR | | 58% | | | 20 March - Hammersmith Head | | 50% | | | 26 March - Kingston Head | | 25% | | | 27 March - Henley Races | | 0% | | | 02 April - HoRR | | 0% | | | 03 April - Vets HoRR | | 25% |

| Siege! | |
Imagine you have angered a group of antisocial youths while out on the river - for example, you have broken their fishing line and they demand retribution. They follow you to the boathouse, where you quickly jump inside and prepare yourself for their arrival.
The hoardes arrive, armed with bricks, stones, and possibly knives. You look around to see what you could use to defend the boathouse. What do you do? | Pick up a blade and charge. | | 0% | | | Run out holding a backstay in one hand, a clam in the other as a knuckleduster, and start swinging wildly. | | 13% | | | Launch a single scull at the gang. | | 0% | | | Stand on the balcony frisbeeing Fairbairns shields at them. | | 13% | | | Stand on the balcony pelting them with weights and Headship medals. | | 6% | | | Dismantle an erg, craft some form of rudimentary nunchucks, put on some jet-black full-body lycra and abseil down from the roof. | | 6% | | | Attempt to drown them by throwing Lard items into the river. | | 0% | | | Put on the women's cheese music erg CD on maximum volume. | | 25% | | | Give Coker a call. | | 38% |

| Favourite Corner? | |
There are lots of gentle bends left out of the options, but all of these require more turn than an Australian spinner. Which one do you like best? | Little Bridge | | 0% | | | First Post | | 9% | | | Grassy | | 27% | | | Ditton | | 27% | | | The Kink | | 0% | | | Under the Railway Bridge | | 0% | | | Morley's Holt | | 0% | | | Chesterton | | 9% | | | Simoco | | 0% | | | Churchill BH | | 0% | | | Elizabeth Way | | 0% | | | The Karussell | | 27% |
