Well since I had missed that, I do apologize (it wasn't a matter of 'hating', obviously, but still, should have been more sensitive since I obviously didn't want to hurt anyone, so sorry).

I need to apologize to you too. The hate wasn’t against you personally. It was rather to OlympicFan who started this. He wanted to downvote me because I wanted to be with my family on the real Christmas Day in Sweden. I feel attacked when a really bad thing happened. Be sure we all wanted this not to happen. What I mean how much we like this site it’s happening much more important things in the real life. 

 

With this I want you all to take care of your families and friends. They can go out to only buy coffee and then never come back home again. That’s happened this beautiful elderly woman. 😢

Oh come on, it's not like this thread was opened just two days ago  ( I know I haven't voted neither, it's because of an entire lack of inspiration )

If you read my earlier post you have understood that my friend’s elderly mother was brutally killed by a psychic ill person. The real life stepped in my way. Then add the Christmas activities it was much happened these last 2 weeks.

 

what I hate is fools that hate on members without knowing what they have going through in the real life.

@vinipereira is there anything that you need me to add or is it ok enough? 

 

 

[Belle 722]

So now I’m not allowed to celebrate Christmas with my family? With that attitude I’m definitely out. 

[Belle 722]

@vinipereiraI’m sorry but I’m not able to vote today either. Today is the big day in Sweden not Christmas Day. I need to spend time with my family. 

[Belle 722]

@vinipereiraI think it’s need to be clearer where the Swedish show jumping team should be put. Now they are both in men’s category and the mixed category. Where should I put this fabulous team?

@vinipereiracan I post my votes in my own way? I don’t know what Size and Font the other members used. 

[Belle 722]

@vinipereira I can vote but I need two more days. 

 

I was going to vote when the voting was open. But my friend’s elderly mother was brutally killed by a psychically ill person. I was shocked and is shocked and sad. I forget about this voting. Would be happy if you can give me a couple of days.

 SWEDEN AS CANDIDATE TO HOST WOG 2030? 

 

IOC has problems to find candidates to host. They asked SOC and now Sweden will make an investigation if we can be a candidate.
