Fondue penalty

Post by insolence »

Well, as far as the stick, the whip and the weight at the legs are concerned, at least I could make Heinz run once around the house. He had lost his bread three times! Actually, he had had to run three times, another three times without shoes an jump naked into the cold Simme. But he didn't want to do that :)

Fondue penalty

Post by stefi »

This is next year's rule: Who looses his bread, jumps nacked in the simme
(I was in the Simme in a Bikini, but with a hot bathtube to jump in afterwards - it's really cooling!)
An other nice idea could be: who gets the lost bread can decide over the loosers penalty (running around the hut is boring...)
...running the simme in a c1 without spraydeck
...clean all paddlers shoes (including neoprene)
...serve coffee upstairs the next morning
...
...we all still have one year to get so many so good ideas ;)

Hey!
You want to insult my kendo :-? ? I finally bought it yesterday, it's performing fine! (it's actually a water race horse with amazing speed, the performane of my beloved slalom racer and rolls with ease. Stabilitiy, though not as stable as my delirious or SL-C1, is ok, in my eyes better than the Homes for example)

the matter with my kendo is, no one significantly bigger than me will fit in. So we need another penalty for the men
@ stefi: cleaning all paddlers shoes is a bloddy good idea! (lots of work, especially when the women bring along all their shoes
:D )


By the way, does anybody know, how I can get photographs into the web so everyone of us can look at them? I don't have an own website like Falk

well, the bathtube, I really miss it. :( I'll have to ask the caretaker of the hut where it has gone... can you imagine an outdoor-bathtube, in a place like bäuertweidli, with hot water? that's what I call outdoor-wellness. 8)

but this wouldn't be a penalty anymore.
but I could imagine something like heating the water as a penalty. Including hacking the wood for the fire. that's all part of the bäuertweidli-bath.

Hi Guys,
When I send out the contact list, I will also send out a password which will let folks upload their pics direct to Cboats. That should happen tomorrow night hopefully (if the pub doesn't call too hard after unihockey)
Cheers,
Matt

@ insolence

Since you've got a web.de-mailaccount: there's a "Fotoalbum"-feature where you can upload your pics. Then you need only to post the link to the album.

There's a step-by-step-help available too.

Thanks to Taniwha, I've had another idea:

For some other pics, go to www.soulboater.com , look for my name (it's insolence, of course), click on it and at the end of the page, you'll find my gallery. Hope you like the pic's.

If you want some, tell me, I'll send them to you!

@eddy

@insolence

Hi Eddy,
Thank you heaps for coming! Sorry the drive back was so horrid. Hopefully now you're right back into it with your course and having fun. I look forward to seeing your pictures when you have time.


To Everyone

Thanks to those who have already posted pictures. Unfortunately, Frank; my system dislikes your system and I can't view that gallery from home, but I'll check it out at work next week.

I have also now created an Album here at cboats where you can all upload your favourite pictures. I just sent an email out with the logon password. Let me know if you need help.

Cheers,
Matt
