24th Jun '03New creditsby mcp
In preparation for handing over day to day running to Ian over the next few weeks, there is a new site credits page ;-)

It's actually quite cool - found bits of the 1997 website that are still here word for word. There is also an 80 (!) long list of the members who have written race reports or submitted pictures so far...
19th Jun '032nd May VIII Songby mjb
The widely-acclaimed rip-off of Pulp's "Common People," as performed by the 2nd May VIII at the 2003 Mays' Dinner, has been transferred to a web-friendly interface and has been added to the 'songs' page in the club traditions section of the website.
You can go here to view the masterpiece and download the cheesy midi backing track.
12th Jun '03New Photo Galleryby mcp
After a sad absence for the last year, we have a new photo gallery. :-) There is still a lot to do to bring over the archive of old pictures into it, but hopefully it will do the business for the Mays!

Any problems or suggestions gratefully received, particularly since it and the members' photo upload page have been put together just since last Sat; there are, no doubt, all kinds of things which don't work!

16th Jun '03One minute gunby mcp
Ever seen one of the starting cannons firing? If not - now's your chance. I've put up a little video clip of the one minute gun... (There is also a little link to it from within the bumps section.)

I think that sometimes, particularly for the start when it's wet, he fires two or even the three at once, to allow for mis-fires. However, for the four minute and one minute guns the usual thing seems to be to use just one. On the soundtrack you can also hear the Senior Umpire, Pete Convey - taken aback by the sound of it even after all these years! ;-)
23rd May '03The Weatherby mcp
I have done a small update of the general info page, including a brief weather forecast.

It's experimental at the moment, but it would be possible to put a little weather icon next to the flag on the front page, for example, which could link straight to it if people said it might be useful. (6 replies...)
9th Jun '03WAP results back on lineby boffin
I am planning to repeat the wap results service for the May Bumps - this is just a quick note to announce that the WAP site has been updated and is ready for action!

The address is http://www-bc.trin.cam.ac.uk/wap/
On Nokia phones, you go to Services then Go to Address and type it in. Maybe someone could enter some instructions for other makes of phones? (3 replies...)
29th May '03Cat and Buns etcby mcp
The origins and significance of the club's two-shield emblem strike me as interesting - particularly since we use that and the Cat and Buns on their own interchangeably.

When I put together the logo for this website I did a little bit of research - and have written it up for a page in the Club section. (6 replies...)
27th Feb '03Machine Failureby mcp
At 1:15 last night the boatclub's server suffered a motherboard failure.

However, we are back up and running with a reserve machine.... Roll on day 3!!!!

(Fingers crossed this one will hold out....) (2 replies...)
9th Dec '02Annual Record '01 - '02by mcp
Every year the outgoing overall club Captain writes an account of the year's results for the college's Annual Record. The reports since 1995 are here on the website and are now joined by John Earl's story of the highs and lows of last year.
1st Oct '02Web server downby jpd
The web server will be down while I find it a new home, as I am moving out of college. Hopefully this will be for less than an hour, but it might not be online again until tomorrow. (1 reply...)
