NorthernStar Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Did I hear correctly that they have the Royal Marines in to police it in case someone might fancy a dip again this year. If that's true it's beyond silly IMO. -------------------------------------------------------------- It is true:D - ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree if they want to run them under the boats are sufficiently robust to do that without the Marines helping... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

francypants Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I think I heard Clare Balding say " This year will be the last time it will be held on the Thames, it is being moved to .......... " If I heard correctly, why ? It's a tradition and I'm sure it won't be the same elsewhere. Hope I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
