A thumping. Although one of the Cambridge chaps, the one rowing at stroke is all but dead.

The Oxford team suffered from E-Coli from day before.

Feels a bit Suzy.

Not really. The Thames is a filth pit, and Oxford are shite.

Well this has been bad news for the Tory Party.
A real pile on in the press over the Water companies failures, massive profits ans disinvestment.
Now they want the public to pay more. Err that's what you should have been doing with the profits FFS

Anyway my daughter is happy as she is applying to Cambridge.

I care greatly about it, but the bored isn't where I would look for commentary on the race.

Seems unlikely, given they beat Leander (the national squad club) in the build up. Shame about the sickness bug, whether e-coli or otherwise.

One thing Oxford do need to change though, is to get their coxes to steer as aggressively as Cambridge's, as long as the umpires are going to allow it. That is the clear advantage that Cambridge manage to maintain.
