So, in my profile here I describe myself as a rowing historian. As it's important to put your money where your mouth is, here's my latest chapter in the history of GB women's rowing - I still live in hope I'll catch up with the present day at some point. rowingstory.com/2005-world-r...
2005 World Rowing Championships
The story of the GB women’s rowing team in 2005 where the quad became World Champions, a young lwt 4x won bronze, and new blood raced in an 8.

The Rose Revived pub at Newbridge is a landmark on skiff meanders. I've just read that it's so named because Oliver Cromwell popped the wilting flower he was wearing (seems a bit unlikely for a Puritan, no?) in his beer, and lo it perked up! Maybe.
