Today I was at my rowing club as usual and the weather conditions were pretty bad, the wind was blowing pretty hard (bear in mind we row on the sea). Uusually when we take our boats down to the pier by the club we have to "backer" with our oars so that we get to the open water of the sea. Today though the wind was so strong that boats and oars were being sent flying in every direction, obviouslly not when we got in the water (my squad consisting of about 16 people). When in the water our boats were dragged quickly out to sea and I told my friend (I row on a double boat with another guy) that this outing would be a piece of cake with the wind helping us along, our trainer then told us we'd be going against the wind much to our dismay. Grudgingly we all turned around and got ready.

I told my friend to row and the next thing i know I gust of wind hits the side of the boat our right arms tilt and so the oar gets dragged under water and we tip into the briny depths of the sea (which is usually full of traffic consisting of oil tankers, police speedboats and tugboats ) Much to our dimsay our wodws didn't reach our comrades ears because of the wind and so we were forced to swim back to the pier dragging the boat behind us 20 minutes later we start yelling profanities at the elements (we couldn't before 'cause we were too cold to string sentences together) and then we hit the showers. It was one hell of an experience which very rower thinks will not happen to them...boy was I wrong

Edit-Oops, I have a tendency to waffle on about things...in a nutshell I fell in during one of my rowing sessions
Go do your homework boy

OK so you added some text to the second one but still:

Dunda double-posted! Nyah! [img]tongue.gif[/img]


LOL! OK sorry about that.

Happy birthday Dunda! [img]graemlins/happybirthday.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] How are you? HavenŽt seen you in a while?

OK Calthy since it is your birthday today IŽll say this once more; Happy Birthday. [img]smile.gif[/img] There.

Attalus, going to sleep at 12.20am? On a work night?

Good morning people. IŽm in a splendid mood today. IT looks like we are going to have a most wonderful day. Not a cloud on the sky, and it (the sky) is coming alive in the most beautiful colors. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hi johnny. How is your apartment faring? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Of course you can johnny. You can plan! What curtains to get, where to put the couch etc. Or more importantly, where to put all the beer.

[/QUOTE]I'm not THAT ignorant Willow The beer is in the fridge, and the kitchen is as good as done. New curtains are already in front of the windows, and the couch is going back to the exact same spot where it was before.

Like i said, there's nothing more i can do but wait.
