The first race took place in 1829 in Henley on Thames following a challenge between old school friends. Since the second race in 1836 the contest has taken place in London.

I have always cheered Cambridge because as a child I lived in Cambridge Crescent, even though at that time we lived closer to Oxford. :-S

I am with you on that Muffy - always support Oxford for uni reasons but always puzzled why it is the same two teams in the final lol

I've always cheered on Oxford...no idea why.

All others in my house cheer Cambridge because it's closer to where we live now? hey ho. lol.

Hoping it goes without a hitch this year ...
