Ubuntu :: Alias - SCP File From Folder To Network

I know this is a relatively simple problem but no matter what combination I try for my alias, I don't seem to be able to get it right! All I want to do is scp a file from my current folder to a location on the network:
Code:
scp filename username@computername:/folder1/folder2

This is the usual layout of the command that I use, so I thought that to save time, I would create an alias or even a function which did this for me, so all I had to type was
Code:
scp101 filename
and it would copy it to the set folder on the remote computer...

My attempt at an alias looks like:
Code:
alias scp101='scp !* username@computername:/folder1/folder2'
and I have also attempted a function:
Code:
scp101()
{
scp "$1" username@computername:/folder1/folder2
}

The alias tells me that filename is not a directory, which I assume means that I have some of the syntax wrong in the alias but I did a google search and I can't seem to find a decent example of what I'm trying to do. When I load up a terminal, I get an error message about the "(" of the scp101 function - so I've obviously can't get the syntax of that right either...
