I must confess that when I was 14 my class at school were asked to each write about either The Boat Race or The Grand National. I knew nothing about either. I thought the Grand National was possibly an old railway company and that the boat race was just a suggested title for a story. It was only when I asked my parents if there were any particularly famous boat races that I found out about this one.
