A bit of 'down time' now (at my expense in case we kick off all that stuff again!) before it all starts again! The games are over so let the games begin, next week!
To get things rolling a small Paralympic/olympic prize, and I do mean small, to anyone who can tell me what the word 'Paralympic' means - without using their computer or a dictionary!
Also, just for a bit of fun - 'name as many Olympic events, past and present, where you could win - going backwards!'
The road signs in Beijing have all gone to denote where various Olympic venues were. Some have been replaced by new Paralymic ones but not all. A sign of things to come? Sorry about the Pun!
More to come soon when recovered from the celebration for all the GB Medals. Certainly not a celebration for Boris Johnson's appearance at the Games!
