<div>See the message from the River Manager about a complaint received from a resident yesterday.  A complaint to the Police would result in offenders being given an on the spot fine (£80, I think).  </div>
<div> </div>
<div>This is NOT acceptable behaviour.  It is an offence and also brings the University and the Rowing Community into disrepute.  </div>
<div>DON'T DO IT!  Further complaints may lead to the Chief Umpire using his discretion to introduce an £80 fine for crews/crewmembers involved.</div>
