Story And Details

My sister in law works for a childrens charity and had entered a team in a dragon boat race fund raising event. At the last minute a number of members dropped out and a rescue operation was in place. So in a last minute call up I stepped in, along with my eldest brother and a couple of other partners of the rest of the team.
We actually had quite a good day and the sun was out in full force. We won 2 of our heats and dramatically lost one of them when somebody lost balance and came off their seat (sorry). Overall we did ok though and finished mid-table which isn't bad considering we had a fairly last minute cobbled together team.
