Thanks Jill, yes 8 left, I was trying to get them all done buy this Sunday, but did to much and aggravated my back problem on Wednesday, so I'm sidelined for a sec, but I will definitely finish it.

Hi Swinny, I am sorry that your back is giving you problems again and hope that it is only a temporary setback. Be sensible though, ( I'm sure you will
) and don't take any risks with ' Dear Old Mr Back '. At the moment he's the only one we all have and he needs plenty of TLC. Steady as you go.

Thanks Jill, what can I say ... that write up was worth every meter rowed
Also thanks for reminding me of what I've been doing wrong in the last few months: no doughnuts
I had been wondering why it was getting harder to keep a decent pace for longer rows. Now I know what to do for this month's CTC

For those of you who sometimes find the Brits' pronunciation of place names a little puzzling ... the ' w ' in Chiswick is silent.
Christopher Bollen from Chiswick … has been constant … has been quick … to reach One Million Metres for the season.
Christopher -
x 1,000,000
Thank you for the mighty amount of metres that you have contributed towards the Team Affiliation Standings.
Christopher, as a founding member of Free Spirits and for landing exactly on 1,000,000 metres, you have been awarded a Long Service Medal.
As it’s virtual, you will never need to polish it.
And now, from the lovely south-west … Martin Saxton … who’s erged at his best … in order to reach One Million Metres for the season.
Martin -
x 1,000,000
A round of applause to thank you for the admirable amount of metres that you have contributed towards the Team Affiliation Standings.
Martin, I hope that you will continue to stay in good health - hale and hearty does it.

Back to it

… who has reached One Million Metres for the season.
Claudius -

Much applause for Free Spirit, Paolo … who’s always erged fast … and not slow … in order to reach Three Million Metres for the season.
Paolo -
x 3,000,000
Next up, from the Rogaland region … that inspiring and fit, young Norwegian … Morten Haugseng … whose athletic abilities have help him reach Three Million Metres for the season.
Morten -
x 3,000,000
And here is Crazy Bear, Juergen
… who has been ‘ ergen ‘ … his socks off, ( and possibly other items of his sport’s attire
) in order to reach Four Million Metres for the season.
Juergen -
x 4,000,000
Thank you again gentlemen for your terrific contributions towards The Team Affiliation Standings.
Juergen and Swinny, congratulations on completing the CBC - Swinny, at 27 rowed, I’m sure you can be an Honorary Bear.
As to whether it was wise or reckless … I think that you have both answered that one.
I do hope that you haven’t done any long term or permanent damage to your backs.
Row safely.

Thank you Juergen - I am rather partial to big ( bear ) hugs.
I have said before how much I owe Free Spirits for helping me change my life around and as I am never going to be able to produce fast times for any of the competitions, then hopefully, this is my way of putting something back.
With hard work and I hope, fun … j b has reached One … Million Metres for the season.

And now we have Gregory Smith … who with … plenty of excellent erging, has also reached One Million Metres for the season.
Greg -
x 1,000,000
Great going both of you and tremendous thanks for the marvellous amount of metres that you have contributed towards the Team Affiliation Standings.
Wishing you all a Happy and Active New Year.

A certain young lady appears to have landed on 1,000,000 for the seasons and as she is the shy, retiring type she's not going to be shouting her own name from the treetops - so from all of us who appreciate your efforts on this thread - THANK YOU..

Thank you everyone for all your energetic erging, which has resulted in gazillions of metres for the Team Affiliation Standings. First Class!
I am glad to see that Dwayne now has his full set of T-shirts - I shall have to buy in some more virtual fabric because he is bound to need some spares.
Safe and sensible erging.

It seems that in no time at all … Christopher Hall … has reached his first Million Metres for the season.
Chris -
x 1,000,000
Thank you for all the many metres that you have contributed towards the Team Affiliation Standings.
Chris, apologies but my wayward computer refuses to print your correct surname - after several attempts, it still insists on calling you Tastevin-Hall. Therefore, I would like to think that you may have celebrated your achievement by having a glass or two of something vintage.
Next up we have young Felton … whose efforts have see him ‘ belton’ ‘ … up the Meterboard at a fair old speed, in order to reach his first Million Metres for the Season.
Felton -
x 1,000,000
We do appreciate the multitude of metres that you have contributed towards the Team Affiliation Standings.
And for landing exactly on 1,000,000 metres … some well deserved, liquid refreshment.
