:joker:

:bored: idiot

Should have ran him down

wondered where Josy was this morning

Latest .....
 

I wonder if he was actually committing a crime, i.e. deliberately causing an obstruction, or just got in the way ..... :conf:

I wouldn't swim in it leisurely :laugh:

And now Oxford have lost an oar!!! And the umpire is allowing it to go on!

Oxford have lost :bored:

Tragic :o

My life. My life Jords :sad:

Lol.

Anyone hear the Oxford bloke shout '****ing disgraceful' in his posh accent?

One of the Oxford crew has collapsed.

Now with video of the swimmer ..... :idc:

And an Oxford guy has fainted!

:suspect:

Most of them are foreign

Apparently the "swimmer" is associated to thisisnotagateway and was protesting against elitism.


:shrug:

"quaffs more champagne"

I have no idea?

That Constatine Louloudis is a beast

and has the most dickheadish name in the history of names

:laugh: My sister used to work at his College and met him a few times. Amazing name

Oooh it's all going down.

Yes The Punk was against Elite People.

As a Result
the race stopped and due to the Rushed ReStart
one team got Extra Lucky.


Next Year
they must Fence it Off
and if a Punk jumps in
pull him out and Taser him.

:joker:

I don't get how it works, does the competition get legal rights over the whole stretch of the race.

Yes The Trenton Punk changed who Won
as the Re Starts clogged them up.

Next Year Get him when he jumps in.

I was thinking this. Apparently he got arrested for public disorder.

But he could just easily pleed not guilty and say he was swimming :shrug:

Its No Joke many of us had money on Oxford Winning.



If I catch this Trenton Bloke I will knock him down

Was it Walliams?

I hope he was a protestor TBH

Not Walliams :laugh:

I know. I don't really know what they can do. I doubt you can just hire out the Thames for a boat race.

:joker:

Boat Race organisers released this statement:

"BRCL [Boat Race Company Limited] can confirm that Alex Woods is in a stable condition. He will continue to be monitored by hospital staff.

At this time, BRCL's concern is for Alex's well-being.

Alex's family are with him and he is receiving the best possible medical care. Until we have any updates, there will be no further comment."

Good news :)

I went to the Varsity rugby match a few years ago, the best thing about it was it was interupted about 6 times with streakers

They don't own the bliddy thames do they?...He can swim if he wants.

He was arrested. For swimming.

For ****'s sake.

It's a crime Shaun :nono:

swimming?...:conf:

Yes, of course

Although I don't think it's actually illegal to swim in The Thames, I think it is frowned upon by the river police who patrol it, and I would suspect you would be picked up by them mainly for your own safety. I don't think I have ever seen anybody swimming in it.
