As a rowing cox who cannot row due to disability I cannot take part in the sea rowing Eddystone Challenge as the cox needs to be able to row as part of the team, as the distance to be rowed is quite a challenge. So as I cant encourage the Mumbles Rowing Teams on the water, this is my pre event motivational contribution.
Eddystone adventure
Good luck to all you challengers
And learn by old mistakes
Dont have Guinness and a curry
It gives you sickness and the shakes
For those of you who are loved up
Don't indulge the night before
It will leave you week and feeble
Save your passions for the oars
Take your time and pace yourselves
You have a long long way to go
May the salty sea be flat and calm
And the winds forget to blow
And as you round the Eddystone
Please shout hello from me
I cannot cox and row like you
But I'll be I your head you'll see
For when you think you are all in
And really on your uppers
A voice inside your head will shout
Mumbles row you Fuc*ers
