Hi Xeno,<br /> <br />Hope everyone is well! If you've heard your voicemail I left on your cell phone then you'll know what this email is about.<br /> <br />Each year in the UK, the BBC have Sports Personality of the year programe where the public vote for their favorate sports starts and the top 6 go thru to the live final on BBC tv just before Xmas. Voting is currently taking place online where you simply vote for your favorate. 3 days ago someone voted Graham Benton and it started a chain reaction, where loads and loads of people have started voting for Graham. Voting closes this wednesday and at the rate Benton is pulling in the votes, there might be a chance he makes the final 6, so there's been a massive campain to vote for GB!<br /> <br />Here's the link to the page: <a href='

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tv_and_ ... stm</a><br /> <br />If you wish to vote for him, simply type Graham Benton and put your email address down. Do you think any from the Iron Oarsman would be interested in voting as well? As you read on the forum he trashed the GB squad at BIRC the other week and ones are already trying to place bets on him rowing in the 2008 Olympics.<br /> <br />Been a busy day for me. We've just had the Welsh Indoor Championships today. I was the commentator today so no 2000m for me today! Was on the mic from 10am to 6pm. Throat is a bit sore now!<br /> <br />Cheers<br /> <br />Jon

Mine is in. (Hey, since I have multiple e-mail accounts, can I "stuff" the ballot box? Yeah, it's not ethical, but it's for the sake of rowing!!!)
