sarah said: As Erica so truthfully explained, it's a lot of voodoo, really. A bit of arrogance mixed in with understatement to achieve the renowned FaT subtlety- I mean, who IS going to take a crew seriously that looks like the Cheshire Cat? oh yeah, and is someone going to explain the first womens kit? looks vile on the photos... I must be getting old... Also, the kit order didnt come through in time, nor did our plans for crew tops. xx | ||

jpd said: Is this the first time that the mean position of our men's and women's top boats has been higher than that of LMBC? No. At the end of day 2 in 1999, our men were head and the women had just rowed over in 9th place, one place behind LMBC. LMBC M1 had just been bumped down to 3rd by Caius, so we were ahead on mean position. If you are only counting positions at the end of the week's racing, I don't know. | ||

| Good luck in the WeHORR, hopefully the women will hit Newnham, and we'll get Caius and all will be well :-) | ||

| Andy - sadly not coming up tomorrow as am rowing in WeHoRR and suspect it may kill me either through exhaustion or cold. I shall be there in spirit though - vodka preferably. | ||

sarah said: does the definition of uberblades allow for any sort of 'gaining more than 4 places in 4 bumps'? That's been possible ever since bumps was introduced. I think Chris's definition of uber-blades was only meant to include five bumps on five different days. Any up 'more than 4' would need a different name; perhaps fat-blades? | ||

sarah said: Vile? How dare you?! *We* think we look proper sexy in it!oh yeah, and is someone going to explain the first womens kit? looks vile on the photos... I must be getting old... It's specially imported from New Zealand, designed expressly to blind and daze/confuse any opposition. Clearly it works a treat... | ||

(the only crew still in with a shout of uber-blades) does the definition of uberblades allow for any sort of 'gaining more than 4 places in 4 bumps'? (ie if W1 manage to bump newnham tomorrow they'll have gone up 6?) what's that, a megablade? oh yeah, and is someone going to explain the first womens kit? looks vile on the photos... I must be getting old... | ||

Bored said: has any crew ever managed an "uber-blade" by bumping on 5 consecutive days Watch out for Caius W2 tomorrow. They have bumped on all four days so far (the only crew still in with a shout of uber-blades) and chase Catz W2 tomorrow (who failed to bump Wolfson W1 today). Pretty good chances there, unless Wolfson and Catz conspire to mess it up. | ||
