hi,

there is someone who may be interested in buying two of our obselete boats if they come with paddles, if so this would be fine as we have loads of old paddles lying around, but i need to make sure i don't sell any personal kit, so:

WHO HAS PADDLES IN THE GARAGE?

yours,

Yes He is finally leaving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Art is going to malaria country on friday so I think that it would only be fair that we tamper with his medication with some pints on thursday night to see him off! 

The plan is to meet in the graduate for 7pm on friday, to share a coke a beer or even a shot of vodka with the most friendly, approachable, good manered member of our club!

Hopefully see you all there we all need a break from revision at some point!

cheers

T.v

p.s. ART if you cant make it, well you have to make it!

p.p.s the colour is intended to represent Arts Personality

Hello!

Hope the work's not bogging you down; here's something to take your mind briefly off it:

RAFT RACE from Leamington to Warwick on the last day of term, and yes, we get to build the rafts ourselves!

COST: FIVE pounds

TIME: TBC, probably start building rafts late morning

Historically this has been a race between the two clubs' execs - this year numbers are slightly thin. If anyone else wants to join in, places are on a first-come first served basis (not many left).

There will be a bbq afterwards - you're welcome to come to the bbq even if not racing rafts - details to follow later. This email is specifically for rafters; please reply to president@polo.warwickcanoe.co.uk if wanting and able to do it.

The sports centre garage has been designated a "confined space", so only sports centre staff, security and estates department are allowed in.

    

The carefully thought through, finely tuned and revoulutionary plan for washing boats is now to tell the sports centre staff you're going in when you ask for the key.

i.e. "continue as before"

I hope this is clear and that no one is confused by the new procedure. If you require emotional support during this difficult transition period, advice can be found between advertisement and advisedly in any good dictionary.

We've booked out the Nene whitewater centre for a couple of hours on Friday 22nd, this is after exams, so theres no reason why you cant be there, We'll probably meet at the sports hall at about 1 o'clock, it should cost about £8 each depending how many people want to do it. Its a good opportunity for those of you with little white water experience to practice in a safe environment, and a chance for the more experienced of you to have a bit of a play. sign up will be on the website soon.

Right guys 'n gals, we need to sort out all those exciting sports fed details!!!!

If you would like to sit with us canoeing folk at sports fed, and we would like you all to, then here is a nice simple check list of how this works!

1) Buy Sports Fed Ticket (online or in advance)

2) Get paper copy of ticket (from advance)

3) Email back to pebble@warwickcanoe.co.uk with number on ticket, name and food preference (carnivour or veggie)

4) Get outfit ready and generally prepare for a night of fun froilics and carnage!

Now there is a deadline:

WEDNESDAY WEEK 5!

Its earlier than normal as each table submitted before then gets more wine then any table submitted after then, which makes u get your moneysworth a little more.  You can still buy tickets after this date but there are no guarantees who you could be sitting with!!!!

Your terrible trio (for one term only),

nicky, tom & tom
