Boat Race on Sunday

Dear Sir,
Once again we have seen the Boat Race held
on a Sunday despite the numerous objections
from many people, especially Keep Sunday
Special (KSS) supporters, when the then sponsors made the decision some years ago that this
event should become normally a Sunday date.
This unpopular decision is believed to have
had
the backing at
the
time of English
Heritage. Many members of the public wrote
in to complain about the switch from Saturday
to Sunday, but received very rude replies from
The Goldie Boathouse in Cambridge.
