Chapter 105 - Of Boats and Cameras
So it was the day of the Cambridge Spring Regatta today... :) Awesome weather finally, for a day at least... I was coxing Churchill W2 for the race, which I thought went quite well, considering we had 3 novices in our boat, who've never raced before. We lost to Corpus W1, which i guess was alright, considering they are a much more experienced boat than us, and that being their first boat, we managed to keep just about 1.5 boat lengths apart till the railway bridge (>1/2 the course) before they pulled away from us...

so here's my beloved W2 crew waiting to race... lovely weather as you can tell....

and of cameras, I just bought a camera from eBay today! a Nikon F5. This is termed as the World's Best (Film) Camera by many photographers, the pinnacle and epitome of modern (film) cameras. And for quite a bargain as well at 360 pounds (including postage). Can't wait to receive this new toy. Sooo exciting. I'll wait for this camera to arrive before I post a photo of my camera/lens collection. 3 days (stupid bank holiday on Monday)... 3 long days....

anyway, today got no update on mrbrown lah... nothing too exciting for now.. hehe... but i'll share this short videoclip which i thought was quite amusing to watch... :)

hahah Fox sports channel is just a channel that shows sports...i wont be able to watch the World Cup the way i would be able to if i had that channel! argh! i'm assuming that Australian free channels will only screen those matches that Australia is playing in. bleah. or perhaps only the good teams. or even, in delayed telecast. (nOOooOO!)
