    		Oxford v Cambridge boat race:
    colectively they were a member of (the captain of) the winning crew nine times.

    		Yay Gtho4! GD won it in 1879 and 1880, RP in 1889,1890,1891 and 1892, AD in 1948/9 and RG in 1937.
    There are a few families that have more than one member that has taken part, but few as appropriately named. I mean RP Rowe rowed four in a row!

    Can anyone identify a poem about a young man caring for his father, as his father is old and weakened by illness? There is something about his father with his arms out, swinging the son as a child, possibly comparing the father to a tree, and the words "it's alright Dad" or maybe "it's ok Dad" are repeated several times. I've been trying to find it for years now with no success.

    Is it a half-brother or sister if they have the same mother? Like, if your brother has the same mother as you, but a different father, is he still your 'half' brother? A child with the same father and a different mother is a half, correct?
