Rowers on Gloriana

[Scholes34]

AIBU to expect that the oarsmen selected to row the Gloriana should be able to keep time, not shorten up and certainly not beat stroke in?

[madmouse]

YABVU - they're not in their own boat or their own team plus they are being made to row unbreasonably slowly!

[madmouse]

unreasonably even

[CrispyCod]

Who cares, they're doing a grand job from where I'm sitting.

[YouOldSlag]

They are Viking style slaves, they are doing it for nothing.

[bronze]

They're pretending to row most of the time anyway aren't they as they're going with the flow?

[YouOldSlag]

Ann Robinson is down there with a whip telling them they're all shit.

[QueenEdith]

There really should have been someone grimacing over them with a whip!

And perhaps one of the RN boats should have taken this further with a display of those three great Naval traditions - after all the Queen is on 'The Spirit of Chartwell', so it would be apt...
