    Hey, this is an email I just got in regards to the eights we row on fridays… just a little snippet of a) how funny the masters at MRC are… b) what I “waste” a lot of time doing

    it is a funny read (written by one of the oldfella’s)… as follows:

    Hey Gang
    Its finally happened! Nick G has said this fun in the eights has gotta STOP!!!
    Yep from now on it turns serious. Nick has had a conference with “The Sisterhood” who reckon the guys are just toying with it. Nick agrees.
    The end of the Friday eights???
    ABSOLUTELY NOT —NO !!!
    THEY ARE ON BUT BIGGER AND BETTER
    This week Tom and Pete in the SAME BOAT with some other young tearaways ………
    BUT.. to balance this and show them up as a bunch of showponies we have
    the return of Matthias, Rob Walker, Paul Webster James Galloway and a first appearance by Matt Le Belenger a French guy who understands plain English such as “Lets beat the living crap out of them.”
    I understand that the girls are out in force this week also in their Octo-powered projectile so lets issue the warning early
    “WARNING” 3 MONSTER EIGHTS carving up the course at Killarney approx 6.20am Friday morning : lesser boats get the hell out of the way.
    The likely crews this week :
    RED CREW: Tom,Mike I, Pete (gun sculler this week!) Al Stu Kieran Lachie and Macca: and guys, wear a snippet of red in your raiments to help with identification of the bodies at the end of the course
    BLUE CREW Paul W Rob W (no they’re not brothers except for Friday)Matt Le Bel, Matt Le Grande Tim James G Adam and Luke. And fellas can you wear a sprig of blue in your blouses for the same reason as above.

    New Rules:
    1.No spitting at the other crew particularly at the start line
    2.No swearing at the other crew (no not even in German, Matt)
    3.No swearing at the other crew (no not even in French, Matt)
    4.Oars in gates all the time please (Tom….I know they can be a handy weapon)
    5.Be polite at all times to the quad (ex Chappo, Rocky Wear $ Caedyn Taylor Campbell, Finno, Will, )
    6.Definitely no spitting at the other crew

    Myburgh away this week
    DC……DC…….come in…..we need you
    now how the hell are we going to fill that extra eight next week?

    NEXT WEEK
    The big news is that Rob Walker is looking for a temporary home for a new eight made by Wintech. Next week we boat 3 mens eights as well as the girls.
    Rob says we have to be gentle with the Wintech eight – it’s almost like he is selling the things!! …….Well he is actually, so it will be really interesting to give it a whirl.

    LAST WEEK
    Again James G clubman of the week first down and 22 blades onto the pontoon.
    Katie crook, apologetic, and has promised NEVER to be sick again as long as she lives
    (sorry Katie and glad you are better now)

    THIS WEEK
    Lets lift our game and help James G get the oars down- quite a few of the guys have to get away to work not to mention some of the coxes so lets make sure we get on the water promptly
    See you Friday

    When you encounter seemingly good advice that contradicts other seemingly good advice, ignore them both.

    This is a hilarious clip from the South Park movie. There isn’t much to say..just that it’s very funny.

    i would just like to boast for a minute that one of the photos from last friday makes me look not so week compared to kiran (sitting in front of me)… which is a rare occassion and purely the work of the camera… but great for my huge ego nonetheless!
