Hahaha..nice one, that's my crew but I wasn't wearing the baseball cap - I'm guessing you were talking about the guy at Stroke? I'm at Bow so yes, I get to watch the glorious head-shaking abilities of Matt at 2!

hehe...he's very amusing to watch! :biggrin:

Shame we didn't win that one - we rowed really really badly it was so gutting :frown:

- even worse that the Cuths crew that beat us were the ones that we knocked out of the Novice Cup!

I hate in when that happens, same happened to me in the s3 8's, we beat the tyne/north crew on saturday (we got to the final and lost :frown:

) but then they beat us on sunday

Were you racing today? I was marshalling by DARC - me and 2 other guys telling people to go along to the start line when they were with their competitors, I was the one wearing the marshal's vest and had the megaphone (LOTS OF FUN!!)....and soon I'm heading back down for another marshalling stint yay! :biggrin:

Ooooh i'll have seen you then, probably even spoke to you (actually it might even have been you i started yelling at lol :biggrin:

) yes i was racing, i got to the final of the s3 4's and then lost, was a bit gutted, but then my 4 did only turn s3 at hexham last week so we didnt do too bad! :smile:

and if it was you i yelled at i apolagise but i was coxing our mens novice 4 and we got to the start for our first round to be told that our comp went up on the sat so we had a bye, then when we went to the start for the second round,waited for over 30 mins to find out our comp wasnt coming and had scratched! :mad:

lets just say i was a tad annoyed lol

PS dont you love the power of the megaphone? i always try to steal it at tees regatta if i can :biggrin:

Hmmmmm I do think I remember that actually, there were a few crews who had to sit around for a while and then got told to just row through. Several coxes yelled at me though, so I can't remember which one you were!

But yes, all good fun, megaphones are amazing :biggrin:
