I took magnus to give her some socialisation.
Breakfast at Scout on Petrie Tce with Tim, Steve & Steve T & his daughter, Rob, Chris. It's a "place to go". Seen as trendy and that makes it interesting as I don't see why. There is a mish mash of tables and the chairs are too small. I wonder why.
Onto the centenary coaches meeting. There was some disappointing sledging of BGS kids. A pity that there is such focus on just developing kids to row at nationals. There's an underlying nastiness. This came through when discussing the camp. Rather than working out how to include and develop everyone, it's just focussed on the best. Or most mature. Now I agree that one does need to separate them based on ability and that includes dedication on their part. In my view, having a club level focus only on the elite will inevitably lead to a very small talent pool.
Home for lunch - leftover lasagne. Snooze.
Dropped off ironing.
Back into work.
Got the party line comms software working at a prototype stage.
Came home. PVS has a headache and not feeling the best. Stress perhaps. Channel surfed. Wasted evening.
