  2. Sevilla women had a slight early advantage, then trailed by half a boat length under the first bridge, came back and were ahead! but then a major clash of oars which stopped them while Betis managed to keep rowing. They got going again at a boat length behind and never closed it. Betis slowly pulled ahead, then moved in front for the final blow. Another Betis win, 8th straight time for the women.

The good kind of rowing between two local football clubs!

  6. I was busy yesterday afternoon so missed the news that Cambridge won the #BoatRace. Commiserations to Oxford, but well done to them for having made the final once again.

  8. We went Brexit, which 'liberated' the Water Companies from European rules and now the Boat Race becomes more about dodging the biological and physical hazards in the water than beating the other team.

    We can have nice things or we can surrender to Fascism and Gangsters.
