Sun, Splashes and Success: Day One at Monmouth Regatta!
The banks of the Wye were buzzing today as Monmouth Regatta burst into life, kicking off a packed weekend of racing with over 60 events and more than 150 thrilling races. The sun shone (mostly), the cakes were plentiful, and the competition was fierce — just the way we like it.
Our own Monmouth crews gave the home crowd plenty to cheer about. Andy and Harry glided to glory in the men’s coxless pair, showing impeccable timing (and not just with their paddling). Meanwhile, Lottie made waves in the women’s singles, rowing like a rocket to claim victory and a well-earned slice of lemon drizzle.
The fun isn’t over yet — racing continues tomorrow from 9.30am over the fast and furious 750m course. So bring your sunscreen, your loudest cheering voice, and maybe a brolly (just in case). See you by the river!
Hey! If you’re looking for info on spin genie, from my experience it’s a pretty solid and trustworthy site. They’ve been around since 2014 and have licenses from UKGC and MGA, so it’s definitely legit. What I like is the huge variety of games—over 4,000 slots and live dealer options—so there’s always something new to try. The interface is clean and works smoothly on both desktop and mobile, which is a big plus for me. Withdrawals are generally quick, especially if you use e-wallets like PayPal or Skrill. Overall, I find it a reliable and fun platform to play on without much hassle.
