It was a moderately successful weekend for CBRC at this years Oxford Regatta, although we failed to repeat the success of last year in the Mixed Medley by loosing out in the first round of the Mixed 8 on Sunday morning pushing us down from top to fourth....
The rowing success's went to the WS4+, in their first regatta since winning their novice pot at Llandaff, and the S34+ finally winning a pot that they deserved, and making sure that the heaviest cox in history came home with a pot! On Sunday it was the turn of the 8's to win with both the men's S3 and women's S2 8's winning.
Gildas won the value for money prize with a grand total of nine races over the weekend and a pot.
Special mention should also go to the youngsters in the N2x, who made a better job on the steering to beat Colin and Evan.... I think Colin was still drunk going by the line he took down the course!
But it was the off the river antics that was really the source of newsworthy gossip, with Billy and Jack attracting the attention of some of the women's squad (or was it the other way round?!?) Apparently there was much tent swapping going on in the dark of the camp site, but all members were keeping very quiet on the evening activities!

Col and Ev - can you show your faces in the club again? Still, I agree that its a very difficult course to steer...Especially after that much beer anyhoo
It looked a straight course to me! I didn't feel that drunk on Sat night until i walked out of Oxfords clubhouse straight into the massive puddle infront of the door!
Billy: Yeah... I didn't stay in my tent last night...
A Nonny Mouse: Oh, well who's were you in?
B: Erm... Dunno!
ANM: You don't know?
B: Nup.
5mins later
A Senior Lady: Billy, don't forget your shirt & shoes are still in my tent.
B: ...
ANM: BUSTED!
I think Colin is simply making excuses he was nothing like as drunk as jack the night before!
I think someone was having trouble with their airbed in the tent next to mine judging by the noises coming from it...
Hmm, must have been a faulty air valve maybe - would that account for the jiggling around and huffing and puffing?
