Boat Race

Cambridge are quoted at 1/6. So expect another procession ,the race being over by Thames Rowing Club. It says a lot for our love of tradition that  the Boat Race still attracts coverage,sponsorship and crowds. Come on you Blues.

Strangely quiet without any hovering helicopters to take aerial photos, etc.. Was the cloud base too low?

Possibly silly question but ... am I alone in seeing the Cambridge colour as pale green rather than light blue?

Judy Allen ● 2774d

No, you're quite right - it is very much toward green.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambridge_Blue_(colour)https://www.hawksclub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/origins_of_the_cambridge_blue.pdf

a two horse race which had a worthy winner and a plucky loser-you can ask no more.
