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

I.e. pull fucking hard and don't shorten up.

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 ?

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

Not in the Chippendales sense of the word "oiled", one hopes.

You didn't seem to be doing that much work :)

Okay. So, 17 FaT men go to Life led by the inimitable Mr Walker, presumably many were quite well oiled. Where, may I ask, is the gossip? Honestly, I know that you're all upset that the girls didn't come with you but surely there was some carnage? Those of us who have to stay in and work need something to keep us going you know. If there really isn't any gossip then I suggest you all redeem yourselves sharpish and make some up.

Will someone explain to me how on Earth, when I did a search for all the photo files on my hard drive, these pictures of Simon Blackburn (and his Mum?) came up???

Good to see the word most commonly used to link to the website in the last month (see the "Monthly statistics" page) is rowing related.

A film crew arrived in Burrell's yesterday (don't know what they're filming, but it looks amateur-ish).
Find out what they're filming! And try and get yourself a part as an extra!!!
