<st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oxford</st1:place></st1:City> and have a proposal/request/suggestion for any of you. We’re having a bit of trouble arranging a training camp abroad this year, and someone suggested a ‘boathouse swap’ or similar with
one of the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Cambridge</st1:place></st1:City> clubs. I’m not sure if this has been done before, but it seemed like quite a good idea.</font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">We would be looking to go away in -1<sup>st</sup> week of Trinity Term (11<sup>th</sup>-17<sup>th</sup> April). We can offer you access to our boathouse on the Isis (the
part of the Thames which flows near the centre of <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oxford</st1:place></st1:City>). Our W1 actually train from the St Edward’s School boathouse in the village of Godstow, about a 30min cycle ride away, so I’m guessing
a 1<sup>st</sup> crew would want to use our racking there instead (which should also be OK) as it’s less busy than the Isis and you can use a coaching launch (instead of cycling along the towpath). I think accommodation in college costs £13.50 a night in the
vac, and there also a very good youth hostel next to the train station.</font></p>
