96'' long 25'' wide
you can stand them up on their "head" 36'' x25'' x96''
or you can split them into 2 halves dead easy.
In ordinary times expect to pay at least £450 for a good used model.


Thanks JT. The splitting them looks like it would make it viable.

Had a look on fleabay and they're all 4 figures second hand, quite a bit dearer than new on the website (which is out of stock anyway).

Come on world. Get back to normal.

When I was in the navy it was pointed out that it can only be called a union jack if it's on a navy ship or frigatte or something, otherwise it's a union flag apparently. Still ace though.

This is one of my favourite pieces of pedantry, having spent much of my childhood messing about on boats, and my love for it is not significantly diminished by the fact it turns out it's not really true.

I also sellotaped a baloon to my head and WAS NOT picked up by the camera.



  • 2000m row warm up
  • 6 x 500 ski erg - 1 min rest

was not sure what to do today , didnt have time for a steady 10km....



  • 1000m row warm up
  • 5000m row 19:08.9
  • 1000m row cool down



didnt feel i had a sub 19 today although i probably would have done it if i wasnt tired from last nights ski intervals

https://i.ibb.co/qdy2vq1/5000m-july-1st-2020-19-mins-10-secs.jpg


GOALZ - to beat the below times by as much or as little as possible


  • 500m - 1:30.0
  • 1000m - 3:20.0
  • 2000m - 6:45.0
  • 5000m - 18.15.0


All of the above put me into the top 20 in the C2 rankings (world)

Some Barry chuzzlewit in my class has ranked a 24 second 100m 51 second 500m and 1.45 1000m I sent him a message of congratulations on his world records.
