Thanks, we are trying to make better use of this site, so any ideas on how to improve it, put them forward and we will consider them.

This article gave us a major Brainstorm session of all the possibilities we could make use of on our blog.

Couldn't agree more Gin.

Debs and Tery, you are every bit a part of the team as those of us who are foolish enough to actually get in the boat and paddle! You'll be missed in Ashbuton but as the others have said, we'll do our darndest to bring back some bling for the team photo

Thanks Deb and Tery these photos and all the ones you have taken for the EW team and the other teams have been awesome. Yes we are truely privileged to have such an extensive archive now of photos from previous seasons and the current one. Thanks heaps for all your dedication, time and commitment you have given our team over the years. We will try our best to bring back some more bling from Nationals - thanks again for all your hard work!

We (isn't that strange We is EW backwards!) are privileged to have our own press corp following us everywhere we go. So sorry Deb and Tel won't be at Lake Hood. I am sure there will be the odd (and I really mean ODD) phone photos to show for it but nothing in the class of our regular recorders. Several people have said it but we promise to bring back some hardware for the team photo WHICH WILL TAKE PLACE ON TIME THIS YEAR.

Thanks for all the hard work and persistence. We might be very poor at saying so but we cherish you two and it won't be the same without you at the Nationals.

chur chur Deb & Tery - you guys rock. The Nationals won't be the same without you guys cos you're such an integral part of everyone's day (and night!)

And those of us who won't be at the regatta will notice your absence too - hope someone in the team is taking along their kodak instamatic to capture some Ashvegas moments!

The team will be naked without you. Thankfully there'll be no photographic evidence of such nakedness :o)

We'll miss you Paparazzi Pizza Cat and Dr Teo! We promise to bring back some bling for ya :) xoxox

We'll be missing our finest! The rest of us will try and make do, but all those not present will be truly missed.

Lake Pupuke was good to us, and getting consistently under the 2:10 mark is a real standout achievement (we don't speak of the mystery 2:15, and we don't blame Gin or Rick at all).

Thanks all, great regatta!

Yeah absolutely, I'd like to thank Deb's and Terry for the truly magnificent work they do. This is my first year in the Dragonboats, and they've always made me feel very welcome.

It's a highlight of this team that they are there and capturing us as we strive and to my mind, set us way apart from all other teams. The photos are wonderful, but it's the photographers that are the real gems.

Actually you two should come down to our last training and we can take you for a spin around Hamilton Lake :)

If you ever need some help with the webdesign side of things, just let me know!

Found this - a photographer obviously thought we looked so hot that he needed to take a photo of us!

Thank you for an awesome weekend guys, love you all xoxox

Thanks DrT im sure it wont be your last post:D We are approaching a brand new season so all the paperworks getting done, dotting the i's and crossing our t's, along with a new committee all eager for season to begin. That buzz that comes with being a DB paddler or supporter has begun. Lots of things to organise so im sure it will be just as busy as the last. See you all on the water.
