Olympics – it's almost over!




Did you enjoy keeping an eye on the London Olympics?  I sure did.  It is the one time every 4 years that I get to look at sports that I would never otherwise see like – gymnastics, equestrian, diving and weightlifting.  The weightlifting in particular is quite compelling tv.  It is quite amusing how we all become instant experts!  My better half pronounced that a diver had "over-rotated" even before the announcer said anything about it.



But apologies to any enthusiasts, I just can't get into handball or judo.  I did catch myself glued to one of the race-walking events and some really clever synchronised swimming– clearly a sad case of Olympicitis.


And even better the Kiwi's did well for a country of only 4 1/2 million people.  Yay!
