and Wednesday is already behind us. I was lucky enough to catch the Final of the Men's 200m today and saw Lightning Bolt do his business, collect the gold and break another World Record in the process. For a guy who says he is not a good curve runner, he sure made a pretty good impersonation of someone who is............ after leaving the curve (as a notoriously slow starter) he was already clearly in the lead and chewing up the track. I can only hope that he is not involved in any drug scandals (unlike the Ukranian heptathlete who's name escapes me at this very moment).
The Limmatswim is to be held this weekend (weather and water conditions permitting) and chatting today with The Moose brought back fond memories of years gone by. We were lucky enough to have the Mooses visiting one year at this time and Mummy Moose and Daddy Moose joined Catherine in the swim while I babysat Little Miss Moose. Running around Zürich on a hot summer's day chasing an overly active 3 y.o. brought me to my knees..... I was certainly ready for a cold beer and a sit down by the time we all met up again!
Any votes for sports that should be removed from the Olympic calendar?

ahhaha yes and great memories they are mate !! we'll be back one day to do the Limmat swim with the moose juniors ....
read a great quote from the SMH " table tennis is something you do with your mates when you're drunk. Trampoline & BMX are things you do when you're nine years old. And walking is something you do when you can't be bothered running. "
Touche ! Club Moose ....
