I was motivated to go watch the surfing in French Tahiti.

Was offered various tickets by colleagues and partners but they all involved going to Paris, bad enough when I HAVE to do that for work. That said, I must admit I do harbour some small regret for not taking the women’s volleyball tickets offered.

I hope there will be no pointless demonstrations. They achieve nothing.

Not as keen to see the Olympics as I was many years ago. Highlights over the decades are:-

Bob Braithwaite - Trap Shooting Gold Mexico

Richard Fosbury - High Jump Mexico Olympics - obviously nothing like it had been seen before.

Dave Wottle - 800m Munich - never seen a better race. He was absolute last at the bell.

Charlie Greene - 100m Mexico  - injured in the final and only got bronze. Up to that point, his rivalry with Jim Hines was brilliant. He looked super cool running in shades.

Chris Finnegan - Middleweight Boxing Mexico.

Mary Peters - Pentathlon Munich.

Jason Kenny, Laura Trott and Chris Hoy - Cycling.

Steve Redgrave - Rowing.

Multibillion euro glorified school sports day for the thick kids who sat at the back of the class.

I just can’t take athletics in general, and track & field in particular, seriously. Do they do Olympics for French vocab too? Medals for woodwork?

It’s almost, but not quite, as unbearable as football.

Still, chacun à son goût and all that.

The info may be there but apparently the bbc can flip coverage about at their will.

I've still not found any way to be selective so giving up.

Not knocking any sport or athletes just not interested in most sports.

Believe it or not T C , the house I was born in on the island and where ( Ditchie ) once lived was below our water level , that is why in the 53 floods we got five feet of water in our house at the time when only a foot or so water came over the river wall , no wonder I have got webbed feet :drinks:
