I was watching TV. Seems a good enough excuse to me.

Honestly I try and introduce some artsy intellectual discourse to the message board and you all bring it back to rowing and/or physics. I mean I know it's the boat club message board and it's Trinity but afford me some diversity please.

rowing physics 101 said: Work = force x distance.

I.e. pull fucking hard and don't shorten up.
Although of course, before anyone else points this out, rowing is much more concerned with useful work done.

Work - what does this word mean ?
Work = force x distance.

bit on the defensive side said: Ahem. One hour's break to TRY and watch some quality TV in the JCR when one has spent one's entire day either working or rowing is totally acceptable. I didn't even do that in the end and was forced to return to the books by 9.30.

Grump.

Anyway, you WERE watching TV (you TV hogging person) and you weren't at Life so what's your excuse? I hope you weren't pretending to work.

I was indeed watching TV, as were five or six others, so please don't just have a go at me :(
What am I supposed to be making excuses about ?
Work - what does this word mean ?

Thank you Simon for that lovely visual image. I'm sure it will stay with us all for a long time.

Bored by work said: Okay. So, 17 FaT men go to Life led by the inimitable Mr Walker, presumably many were quite well oiled.
Not in the Chippendales sense of the word "oiled", one hopes.
