| JL t-shirts by Erica - Tue 27th Sep 2005, 10:02pm | |
| Has anyone else seen the JL t-shirts that say "ROW FOR PEDRO" on the front and "Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills... feathering skills... catching skills... jumpies skills" on the back? See the JL page . Two (or three) queries: 1. Why Pedro? Is this really random or am I missing something? Is it a quote? 2. What are jumpies? (3. Should I buy one, for $15, or would this jinx my relationship?!?) (7 replies...) | |

| Relative boat speeds by speedy gonzales - Tue 20th Sep 2005, 4:14pm | |
| I was wondering if anyone knows of a reliable table comparing some kind of average boat speed/gold medal times, or anything really to give an idea of relative boat speeds across ALL the different classes. It's very hard to find any info on non-olympic classes, e.g coxed fours, and how they compare, speed wise to other boats. And/or can people offer opinions on this? Is a women's coxed four, for example going to be faster or slower than a women's pair? Women's eights and men's singles? (6 replies...) | |

| Bow tie? by Martin - Thu 23rd Jun 2005, 10:31pm | |
| Have discovered I have a spare FaT bow tie. Anyone currently rowing want one? Needs a little bit of a clean and perhaps an iron (can you iron silk?), but is essentially fit for purpose. (9 replies...) | |

| Marshalling opposite the Plough on Friday gave me the opportunity to take some videos of practice starts for the FaT crews in the top Mays divisions. They are here: W1 M2 M1 When I get some more webspace I might put up a video of the Arrows VIII for comedy value... | |

| Website groups overload by Martin - Sat 4th Jun 2005, 11:59pm | |
| There is a need to purge lots of old and unused groups from the website. I've put together a list of groups I think we should ditch, can everyone let me know which of the following should be kept. Some older members may object to some of these, but I reckon that many are used so infrequently now that it would be much better, for current members, to kind of start afresh... Rowing groups 1st men's lent viii 1st men's novice viii 2004 2nd men's iv for city sprints 2nd men's lent viii 2nd men's novice viii 3rd men's lent viii 3rd men's novice viii 4th men's lent viii 4th men's novice viii 4th women's lent viii 5th men's lent viii 5th men's novice viii 6th men's lent viii squad grad summer rowing ladies squad (out of date) lower boats - cardinals men's lower boats (lent 2005) novice coxes novice men summer squad 2004 women's 1st may viii (out of date) women's 2nd may viii 2003 women's 2nd may viii 2004 women's first boat squad 2004 women's lent squad 2005 women's mays training camp 2005 women's mich squad 2004 Public groups 1st & 3rd croquet 1st & 3rd trinity cc 1st & 3rd trinity golf club boathouse games food football hayfever sufferers michaelmas coxes new town cinemas non-abelian SU orienteering scum haters summer fun summer rowing tetris ladder the posse tourney unsubscription error comments Private groups 2nd may viii song cucbc senior umpires ed's unsavoury mailing list gossip queens jpd test group kss discussion (only has 1 member) law lords lower boats files (what is this used for?) new committee novice coaches temporary group new test group the fab four the safe list wet people womens elite formal hall squad (out of date?)

| Tide Tables on the BBC by jmg - Fri 27th May 2005, 9:10am | |
| In addition to the controversial new TV forecasts, the BBC seem to have made some quite positive changes to their weather website, including tide tables. Not being a regular on the tideway, I don't know whether this is well known and understood, but I wonder if anyone can explain reasonably simply why the shape of the curve changes so dramatically as you work your way downstream from 'Richmond' Lock to Kew, Hammersmith etc etc etc etc? Also, what effect if any does this have on the stream, particularly where on the curve would you expect the strongest stream? (4 replies...) | |
