The potential carnage there doesn't even bear thinking about! I am pretty sure if health and safety knew what that was it would be made illegal! not liking the sound of that pricing though... its £1.50 for a pint of the regular SB up here and i'm sure you could get a cheeky shot in there for a quid if you really wanted to up your game.

I worryingly think that the power point presentation on my wedding day might be a lengthy affair!


Simple way to avoid that though....

Never EVER even consider getting married, go for living in sin it is far more fun!

Exactly, and just think of how much the divorce will cost. Even more boat money down the drain!

Not wrong there Ben- please remember not to waste a study period in the library- they are the only opportunity to trully learn some essential life skills you will need in later life... mine were spent learning the basics in The Marquis on North Hill Colchester and Castle Park... and I still managed squeeze out a few good grades due to a careful 'work/life balance' my friends and I lived by.

Make sure you acquire the following knowledge while you're still young enough:

1) How to get 'bend' on a cue ball yes
2) How to countdown from 501 and finish on an even number no
3) How to adjust your retinas when leaving a pub during daylight no
4) How to backspin a frisbee and catch one under your leg yes, no
5) How to negotiate a free McChicken Sandwich by placing a rogue pubic hair in a half-eaten burger Mc chicken premieres are where its at these days...
6) How to mix a perfect snakey-b with a 3 litre bottle of white lightning, some 'rola-cola' kestrel lager, value blackcurrant cordial and a red bucket with a damaged handle Perfect? no. Good enough after a few pints to warm up? yes.


Slightly dissapointed to be honest.... theres so much I have left to learn...
Im 18 in 2 weeks... time is running out... I need guidance!

I'll be running some 'how to be a proper student' sessions at the cherub nats this year if you want to get involved Ben. I think that I will have to chat to Dennis and TT to put together a complete package as I think between us we have probably achieved most things!

1) Meet a nice girl
2) Train her to be a crew
3) Marry her
4) Buy a National 12 / Cherub together
5) Have a row/affair/emotional breakdown
6) Get a divorce and split assets 50:50- in otherwords: chainsaw the boat in half and make 2 6ft skiffs

Just make sure you beat her on Isis' 6 footer circuit!



Oh the benefits of 20/20 hindsight.......
