Camford Race
Day
Cheers from the crowd brought us out
on deck to enjoy the racing.
This may
not be the River Thames, these may not be the eights from Oxford and Cambridge,
in fact there is nothing faintly OxBridge at all, but the fitness, practice
sessions and dedication of the teams definitely make them CamFord.
Rain did not stop
the excitement of the first race.
The rain lessened for the ladies fives.
The sun came out
for the men’s threes.
Hard fought to the
end.
The
winners.
One of the support
craft.
Tony at the
front, Andy at the wheel of the officials
boat.
I’m only looking at their headdresses – honestly.
OK maybe just one
chest.....
The exhausted ladies six champions.
Delight and
cheers.
The ladies eights race
was nail biting.
The crowd went wild, well sort
of.
Final
sprint.
The yellow team won by a
whisker.
The men's eights
winners.
Celebratory
splashing.
Relief.
Well, what a day, time for a well earned rest.
.
ALL IN ALL VERY
EXCITING
WONDERFUL |
