At this time of year, when the summer regattas seem a long time away, the days short, the nights cold and the miles long, it's always good to remember the wise words of St. Hodge.
And so with this in mind, the Northern One reads The Night Before Christmas (for Rowers) - live from Kings (shortly before the carol singers arrived and had him arrested).  ..read more
