I only need water. I can go 17 days without food. Plus, food takes too long to prepare. Also, that’s what a bucket beneath your chair is for

I prefer a TV in the bathroom but fine.

I'm expecting tonight's/tomorrow's men's competition to have a rather big number of viewers though after all this drama. Apparently it's again live on the Eurosport Player

Meh, mixed relay. But the Eurosport TV tip is a good one, might just tune in if I'm still awake or else watch it at breakfast

Right, we should definitely identify issues now. But calling the venues ugly, unusable, and dangerous during while there’re still be constructed is a little over the top. Corrections can be made rather quickly. Plus, no one will really how the venues look until a few months from now. It’s the Olympics for Christ sakes, the venues will be fine.

well, the Rowing venue just is what it is...an artificial channel within the docks...

 

there's no chance it can change a lot in 12 months (the only thing they're gonna do is put some decorations on the walls and a basic roof over the main stand -worldrowing has stated that's absolutely mandatory...they won't accept a stand with people completely exposed to the elements)...

And that's one more thing the hosts will not be able to improve about venues...
