Him Tim, You do such a great service by uploading theses videos for us. I know this is the only way many of our boarding families can even see their boys row. Any idea when you will be able to get the first VIII race from HOR yesterday up?

Hi Alan, there's a delay because I've been told that I'm not allowed to post any footage on social media. I haven't go a straight answer as to why yet, just something about Headmaster Agreement and GPS body getting involved. I'm trying to work it out and hope people from other schools contact their Dir.of Rowing and see if they have had the same notice given to them. Frustrating and ridiculous if you ask me. Tim

@@TimKellySportsHighlights Hi Tim I was one of the Nudgee dads who spoke to you on Saturday and I am also the president of our rowing support group at Nudgee. Like you my son rowed in the 1st VIII on Saturday and I would love a keepsake of the event and footage to pass on to family and friends around the world. Given the warning was put out to you via the GPS, do you happen to know if they arranged for any other footage to be taken of the racing? To say you cant do it just before the major event of the season seems crazy to me. Why not just advise at the end of the season rather than disappointing so many people by taking away what has been a great service to all that you have provided. Also I think TSS might not have got the message; vimeo.com/324774647 Have you thought of putting the footage up in a closed group google drive and add all you channel subscribers as people with access to that group. That gets away from it being on social media. So many of us love what you do and rely on your videos to send to boarding student families and other family and friends that cant make it to the dam, especially given the bad weather last weekend. With my own situation I have a father with dementia in a aged care facility and my mother could not come out to the dam as she has trouble walking and with the poor weather we just couldn't take the risk. How do they propose that all those people that couldn't get to the dam are supposed to watch the race? Alan Kirk [e-mail]
