Who to support? by Rich - Fri 17th Mar 2006, 9:32am
The Tideway Slug reports that Cambridge race against Leander in a fixture this weekend. Normally the support for Cambridge would be unequivocal, but I also note that Leander is to be coxed by 1+3 alumnus Steph Richards. Maybe we could hope for a Cambridge victory, but made much closer because of Leander's steering? (3 replies...)
Watch varsity football! by From the Trinity football captain - Sun 26th Feb 2006, 12:02pm
The Varsity Football Match 2006 has been confirmed for April 2nd 2006, at Fulham's Craven Cottage ground at 1pm. That is three hours before the Boat Race starts on the river behind the ground. It should be a fantastic day in London for all Cambridge students, and the Football Club would appreciate your support. Tickets are £10 which gives you access to the newly re-developed Fulham village; a complex of bars, restaurants and cafes, match programme, Riverside Stand seating for the match and prime viewing space on the Riverside Terrace for the Goldie and Isis Race which is due to start at 4pm, and the 152nd University Boat Race, due to start at 4.35pm. For more information, see the links below. If you would like tickets, please contact Matt Ellis (mje35).

BumpIt by Simon - Sun 26th Feb 2006, 8:34am
It's cool, well done people. Just alarmed that it apeared between midnight Saturday night and 7am Sunday morning - it's bad enought that I have to work over the weekend (and thus engage work avoidance tactics like looking at the website) - hope you managed to get some sleep! (50 replies...)
Bop requests by DJ KSS - Tue 14th Feb 2006, 3:10pm
It's that time of year again - the bop will soon be here, along with all those classic bop tunes and classic dance moves from the bufties. All requests for songs, old and new, will be considered. Enjoy... (13 replies...)
Lottery funding by Moneybags - Thu 15th Dec 2005, 11:51am
This might be of interest to some of you:

The government are conducting a survey to determine how the lottery money spent on arts, heritage and sports should be split between these three areas. The link to the survey's on the right hand side.
Beeramids by Martin - Fri 7th Oct 2005, 12:16pm
Until now our infamous beeramid has been the largest example of such an erection to be found on the internet. However, after all these years our efforts have finally been outdone... (sent by an anonymous reader)

Incidentally, beeramid even has an entry in the Wikipedia. (7 replies...)
JL t-shirts by Erica - Sat 24th Sep 2005, 5:25pm
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 - Mon 19th Sep 2005, 11:04pm
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...)
Contacts by Andy - Fri 29th Jul 2005, 11:33am
I sent an email to the contacts@cucbc.org list this morning, and I haven't yet received it. Can anyone who is also a member of said list confirm that it isn't working please. Cheers. (17 replies...)
