that's fantastic Tony, I just saw the GBR

[lutonlagerlout]

there are a few yanks and aussies in the mix too
in reality though Rowing is a middle class pursuit as the poorest countries cannot afford the kit
its mainly commonwealth countries that get involved, win lose or draw we intend to have fun in Boston!

its cold outdoors plus we are a bit short of rowing clubs in Luton
she is also doing well in the 100m
