Can we have 'The Winner Takes It All'? Lordy, I feel inspired today.

rising charm said: Hear, hear and that also goes for Five, S club 7 et al. (Not that it really matters to me anyway, as I won't be there, but I like to think that FaT still has taste). Says the man who can be found dripping with sweat, with no shirt on, jumping up and down to the refined 'who let the dogs out'!

Kylie excepted, anyone with half a brain would refuse to play all of those, as they're all rubbish. Hear, hear and that also goes for Five, S club 7 et al. (Not that it really matters to me anyway, as I won't be there, but I like to think that FaT still has taste).

Anna said: What do you mean 'no Whigfield'?? That's shocking. Next you'll be saying no Steps, no Kylie, no Britney, no Chesney ...... I think it's harsh to tar Ms Minogue with the same brush as Haitch from Steps. However, Kylie excepted, anyone with half a brain would refuse to play all of those, as they're all rubbish.

flat footed said: At least in the macarena you can't get trodden on as people jump up and down to James and the like... Well, if you can't stand the sweat, get out of the mosh-pit

On the subject of feet, could anyone explain why the plural of 'bigfoot', a large hairy primate said to inhabit wilderness areas is North America, is 'bigfeets'?

The macarena rocks. Anything with dances that people can forget and look silly doing has to rock surely?

Next you'll be saying no Steps, Tempting... very tempting, but I'm Dan on the Whigfield. Even the macarena (sp?) comes out ahead of that

What do you mean 'no Whigfield'?? That's shocking. Next you'll be saying so Steps, no Kylie, no Britney, no Chesney ......

Right. The time has come again. Bop playlist requests here please. And don't even mention Whigfield.

the pretender said: Matthew-you're supposed to be explaining why you weren't at Life. Wasn't it incredibly obvious? 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. Matthew-you're supposed to be explaining why you weren't at Life. Wasn't it incredibly obvious?

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. 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 ? 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.
