Default Boat Race Today in the Thames but water is Dangerous E Coli

[What Lies Beneath: London Boat
Race Marred by Sewage Concerns.
Rowers in the Oxford-Cambridge
Boat Race this weekend have been
warned of dangerously high levels
of E. coli in the River Thames,
the latest sign of England's polluted waterways
The warning was stern: Do not enter the water.]


If you have a Cut
the toxic water will infect you


Off to Hospital.

The Tames is notoriously dirty. Wouldn't be surprised if there were some dead bodies in it as well

I read somewhere recently that 4 or 5 sharks (Dogfish i think) were caught in the Thames for the first time in years, which is a sign of good river health.
