I doubt I'll be doing any rowing related activities this coming May day on North Uist, but there'll be lots to come this weekend. |

I'm driving to Germany with a friend to pick up her new C1x and car- top it back to Brussels. So a thoroughly rowing-related day which involves neither water nor exercise. Dave H |

I shall be visiting my parents and thoroughly land-bound. But since my father was a rower (probably what we'd call "elite" these days), and since he's at least partly responsible for my contracting the infection myself, I'll make sure that we drink a toast on Thursday to rowing and to all my friends on r.s.r. -- Henry Law Manchester, England |

OK, well, we did it. Behr Boatworks in Konigswinter was a comfortable drive of 250km/2h45 from Brussels, motorway all the way except for a small detour we made to visit this local curiosity: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherpenheuvel-Zichem Mr Behr is a dealer in new and used boats operating out of an aluminium hangar a long way from the nearest water. His shed was full of delights, and he was happy to show them off and to relate their provenance. Anybody want a championship-standard coxed four for a very heavy crew, at a knock-down price, he's the man to see. Anyway, here's Mr Behr, the boat and the new owner. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d43/TheSSK/Carol_boat1.jpg The trip back involved transiting a couple of diabolical weather systems but I wasn't driving by then. Boat was introduced to the Canal in Brussels today, apparently, and Ihear that both boat and owner enjoyed the experience, and with a bit of luck madame will start terrorising the long-distance circuit in a couple of weeks. For me, the downside is that I've lost my regular doubles partner. So ... will I be the only one to show and tell? Dave H |
