I thought it would be finished by now.

Still not started - just showing Cambridge boat sinking in 1978.

Just checked, it's not due to start until 5:55.

COME ON !!!! I LOVE THE BOAT RACE - WHOOOOP !!!!!!

 

Cambridge all the way !!!!

Oxford favourites by a mile

 

Is there any reason for that Saint?

 

Was it your Alma Mater?

 

Personally I have never picked a side. They are both winners 

 

 

I like the colour

 

Cambridge are the underdog - and as an Englishman we must support the underdog.

Oxford has won the last two races - so its Cambridge's time.

I have "Alma Mater'd" Oxford  . . . as a tourist

It's raining!

 

But Oxford are trying to catch Cambridge up.

 

Cambridge 81 wins

Oxford 77 wins.

 

So should you not want Oxford to win as history would suggest they have won less encounters. 

…and one dead heat in 1877.

Well i know Oxford are lower historically BUT if you look back over the last 10-15yrs its Oxford dominant

Go Cambridge

 nice one

Oxford won the reserve race....comfortably!

 

Ah, you see I remember the Oxford dominance 1861-1869 and 1890-1898. Glorious days.

 

Between 1976 and 1992 Cambridge only won once!!

 

Whoah look at this !!!

3mins later and it "Oh no"

Stupid spectators thinking their moblie phones will get a good picture at that distance !! *rolls eyes*

Something weired happened to Cambridge and Oxford have pulled about 2 lengths ahead. Maybe hubby will be proved to be right.

Cambridge caught a wave from Oxford !!!!

Nope it was CONTACT !!!

im trying to fit a quip in about one of the teams having the smallest cox

 

but i cant

 

The Cambridge cox is looking rather deflated !!

*sniggers*

Harry Carpenter at the Oxford-Cambridge Boat  Race  1977 - "Ah, isn't that nice. The wife of the Cambridge President is kissing the Cox of the Oxford Crew."

Ooooh controversial

Nah, not really - but they have to go through the motions.

Well a slightly disappointing result - yet entertaining, non the less.

Have never understood why the beeb devote a whole Sunday afternoon to non coverage of the boat race, we have the same lengthy tedious fillers every year+ the last one.for a race that lasts 15 minutes, or 3 in this years case.

Its our glorious heritage

It would be more entertaining if it was between Sunderland and Teesside poly (in old money) alternate years Tees And Wear. Bit of aggro to add to the entertainment.

26.4 seconds flat!

 

Hello to you too

 

 

At this rate well be lucky to see the round robin stages of the world Tiddly-Winks championships, live!
