Two Down... Two to go!



WE BUMPED AGAIN TODAY!!! To answer your questions, Bumps is the most unfair game ever... the starting order is dictated by the previous day's results, and that in turn by the one before. The beginning order in any given year is the same as it was at the end of last year's Bumps, so it does take a long time (like years or decades) to reach the top. My college.. Corpus, has only had the headship once in it's 651 year history, and we're not likely to change that. What we do want is 'Blades' which is the honour and right to purchase your own oar decorated with our names and the boats we bumped, and place it in the college bar forever -- would be kind of cool to come back years later and see your name in the bar, so we're really gunning for it. To get this honour, you need to bump for all four days of rowing -- so, we bumped yesterday, and today, so we're half way there. Wish us luck tomorrow, because it's really going to be hard then. As for Jon-esque farting, yes, that certainly comes into it -- fortunately it's the guy in front of me who does the most, so therefore I don't have to smell it! Ok, that's my extended story. Good to hear from you guys, and I'll keep you posted!
