| Site visitors by mcp - Wed 11th Dec 2002, 4:07pm | |
| Tom the other day remarked on the very large number of people visiting our site via Google web searches. The monthly stats reports around 800 hits in the last month alone. Out of interest I have looked at the log files for the record of what these people have been searching for - here is the list since 1 am on the 8th (hits from google.com or google.co.uk, not including google images or google groups): rowing photography members incest katie friedman national watersport centre nottingham caius boat club jet photographic ben coates info website winter 1280 x 1024 dinner playlist autumn 1024 graham fisher peterborough chris pidcock andrew fisher trinity college fairbairns st johns rich dewire black prince trinity college coleman accomodation jet photographic may bumps firstandthird jet photo cambridge j cazorla college crews navin dasigi comedy rowing jet photographic kamil szczegot cambridge rowing triathlon parties photos college a lee captain trinity motorway disasters head of the river rowing races hammersmith rowing head of the river disasters mpeg cambridge winter head photos 2002 nail biting photos women's henley black prince boatclub sexy parties photos rowing coach job description flash splash 1600 1200 hung balls kamil szczegot beeramid floods october 2001 fairbairns results cambridge cambridge winter head photos women's twat j2o fruit drink fairbains photos old etonian club fairbairns regatta results 2002 msi ms-6378 atx jet photographic rowing equipment rigger jigger HRM a brief history first and third trinity boat club coxing calls fashion socks henry adams rowing bufty rebecca beale rowing training first and third tbc fairbairn cup rowing photos 2002 first and third trinity alex barrett cambridge (3 replies...) | |

| Gym erg style guide by Simon - Mon 18th Nov 2002, 1:42pm | |
| Anyone who has used an erg in a gym during the holidays will have been able to enjoy that smug feeling as you under rate someone on the ergs who just does not know how to row and is flummoxed as you pull splits which are far better than them. This thread is to enable us to contrast and compare "gym erg" technique. As well as a fantastic piece of skill witnessed at the Indoor champs, with a contestant tapping up at the finish, my particular favourite is someone at my gym in London who manages to use their back twice in every stroke. Pure class. (9 replies...) | |

| It's kit Jim, but not as we know it by Simon - Sun 14th Jul 2002, 8:10am | |
| While I'm away sailing (and proudly using my 2nd Mays top to protect against the Biscay elements), a small poser to keep you amused over the summer.... What's the most obscure/impressive place anyone's ever worn a piece of 1st & 3rd kit?
And before the pedants jump in: that's geographical place, not which part of your body... (34 replies...) | |

| Cox needed by Simon - Tue 9th Jul 2002, 1:57pm | |
| If any coxes reading this are in London on Thursday night and fancy taking out a WS4 4+ for a practice, then please get in touch. Tideway experience useful but not essential. | |

| Mich Term Bop Requests by Optimistic - Sat 22nd Jun 2002, 5:47pm | |
| Just thought I'd get in early Iain. Can we have "Move in a little closer baby" by Mama Cass? Listen to it. It's not as slow as the title sounds. (48 replies...) | |

| The Stomp by Anna - Thu 13th Jun 2002, 8:04am | |
| The Stomp, come to it. Please. I know it means getting up early but you can go back to bed and it's really poor that we're outnumbered by a bunch of tree hugging muppets when there's so many of us.
Tomorrow and Saturday are our chances to make it up so get your arses out of bed and get stomping. Thank you ladies and gentlemen and GOOD LUCK to all our crews today. (19 replies...) | |

| Best Computer Games of all time by Chris - Tue 28th May 2002, 4:23pm | |
| Seeing the excitement being caused by various computer games being posted has reminded me of a thought I was having the other day as to the best computer games of all time. I invite everyone to submit their favourite 5 computer games (in order) of all time. (19 replies...) | |

| Elections by Anna - Wed 15th May 2002, 1:40pm | |
| Come on people. We need more candidates standing for the posts on the committee. I can understand that you're all intimidated by the fantastic job this year's committee have done. I know it'll be hard to live up to the standards we have set with our wit, charm, grace, organisational brilliance and general greatness but I think there are people out there who could possibly take over the mantle and even (sharp intake of breath) do as well as we have. I know it's exam term and no-one wants to get into a serious long term relationship now but the committee is a loving partner, it's there for you when you're down, it revels in you successes and when you get carried away and mess up, it helps you get over this and move on to better things.
The more cynical among you can even put it on your CV to make you look good (though I think using partners like that is disgraceful). Go on, you know you want to. Everyone needs someone to love. For more info contact me (Anna) on am407. (3 replies...) | |

| Fellow boaties, the 3rd VIII require some amusing nicknames for their forthcoming T-shirts. If you would like to add any and all of your suggestions here, they will be considered in due course for suitability. (6 replies...) | |

| Lents m1 video by Martin - Mon 4th Mar 2002, 6:52pm | |
| Ok, so I'm bored.
The CUCBC message boards have links to videos of Saturday's racing - and in particular m1 around Ditton. Did an estimate of the ratings of the various crews coming around the corner - spot the highest ;-) Caius 36.5 LMBC 34 Emma 35 1 & 3 37.5 Christs 34.5 Downing 35 Jesus 34 Tit Hall 33.5 Robinson 34 Catz 33.5(2 replies...) | |

| Kit by Tomos - Sun 3rd Mar 2002, 5:55pm | |
| Does anyone have a 1st & 3rd splash top that they don't wear any more (eg. because they have a Black Prince one or something), they they'd be willing to sell? I'm not too concerned about getting a pristine new one, just something to keep the mud off if I do any more umpiring.
I know this is a cheeky request, but it was extremely successful in getting me a zephyr top last term, and at least I'm not abusing the email list this time... (11 replies...) | |

| Quotes page needs trimming by Dubya - Fri 22nd Feb 2002, 9:01am | |
| The quotes board is for "classic" quotes, but it has a lot of rubbish on it at the moment. I think we should have a second, moderated, quotes page, which contains only the most classic quotes, ie ones which have more than passing significance. e.g., "pick it up for the last kilometre", or "bench-press to victory", or "Stroke five, full square, ready go", or "I am so smooth" (3 replies...) | |

| Skimmed Milk by Simon - Mon 11th Feb 2002, 12:11pm | |
| Skimmed milk is just water with white colouring. Does anyone actually like it?
And if not, why do members of the club keep buying it when visitng SW15? (2 replies...) | |

| The Justice by the webmaster - Tue 5th Feb 2002, 2:40pm | |
| Mr Glass, Mr Talbott and I have almost finished the minutes from December's Justice meeting; publication is imminent.
However, I've been vaguely rooting around for various other bits of Justice info to publish at the same time; e.g. I have got emails sent during its creation and minutes from the 1st meeting etc. I even found the proposed logo. Am I right in thinking there have been 3 meetings? If so, were there ever any minutes or a record of the 2nd one, in December 2000? If anyone finds such things loitering in their inbox, I would like to include them. Although I was absent, I gather that Fisher, G. and Ingram, G. were the Law Lords.... (4 replies...) | |

| Locker Allocation by Kernigit - Thu 31st Jan 2002, 7:01pm | |
| John has sent an email out suggesting a policy for locker allocation in which he asks for comments.
My opinion on the matter is that lockers should be given to those people who spend most time at the boat club not on some random lottery. After all the people who spend most time at the boat house will need to keep more stuff at the boat house (e.g. kit, towels, water bottles, maxim, training logs....). The easiest way that I can see to do this is to look at the speed / ability of oarspeople, although another argument would be to measure improvement. Another point that should be made is that if people who are heavy users of the boat house are to be deprived of lockers it might be an idea to be more tolerant to kit / other belongings which is left in the changing rooms - i.e. they can't be thrown away at the first possible opportunity! What does everyone else think? (3 replies...) | |

| Trivia by pub quiz, hotshot - Wed 30th Jan 2002, 9:36am | |
| Last night a small deposition from BPBC took part in a pub quiz in Borough. See how you fare on the end-of-quiz accumulator...
1) What does STOL stand for? 2) What is the collective noun for rhinoceroses? 3) Of what is St Clare the patron saint? 4) What is the derivation of the word "posh"? 5) What does VTOL stand for? (46 replies...) | |

| The Committee by RTT - Mon 14th Jan 2002, 4:25pm | |
| Having read the forthcoming events info, I am amazed to discover that our Committee is organising nearly everything in the rowing world. Who would have thought that 1+3 ran the Head of the Nene? Or the Pembroke Regatta? Interestingly Guy appears to be kicking up his heels and leaving Simon Blackburn to organise the GoR again this year. What I want to know is, how do they manage? No wonder JW always seems to be awake into the small hours before early morning training!
Also, are they organising Henley this year, and if so a) Will 1st Trinity get pre-qualified for the Grand as is traditional? b) Can I get a Stewards pass? (8 replies...) | |
