The Official CC Winter Olympics Thread....

The Women's 30k Ski Cross had both me and Chuffy shouting at the telly - gripping stuff

The skating team pursuit gold was also edge-of sofa stuff.

What will I do when it's all over

 

[Auntie Helen]

That skating team pursuit, where the Germans won it with one of their number crossing the line on her belly, was fantastic! They have shown it dozens of times on German TV today!

And Canada win it!!! That was a decent evening's entertainment, even if I've lost the opportunity to wind up my Canadian cousin. He had tickets.

Marvellous drama and a fairy tale ending.

That's it folks, the Vancouver games are over bar the shouting.
See you all in 4 years time in Russia...



In the meantime, stay tuned for London 2012, the Fabbest Olympics!

I was so knackered I did go to bed. Woke up at 7am to listen to the radio to find out who won!

Believe me, it was worth staying-up to see the Americans humbled...

A friend at work was telling me he'd watched the opening ceremony and the stadium went noticeably quiet when the German athletes entered. Is there any reason for ill feeling between them and the host nation?

Can I bump this question again please? Ta.

 

[Auntie Helen]

Yeah, I was wondering about that, seeing as I was in Germany all last week and they were doing so well in the Olympics.

Congratulations to Odd-Bjoern Hjelmeset for a frank explanation of the reasons for his poor performance.

I've never watched it before but the ice hockey last night had my nerves jangling the whole time. A hard man's sport if ever there is one.
