    Has taken me 5 mins & 30 secs to realise that the Norwegians are not in red.
  2. Grassmarket
    Going to celebrate with second breakfast!

    How terrible. Let us hope that, for example, pretty much any random Russian female curler over the last twenty years does not take this tawdry path to cheap fame.
  4. Grassmarket
    Still a couple of days left though? There's a week to the first heat! People have grown new heads in less time.

    Nathan Crumpton gets some media attention, although it's the Daily Mail, so most details are wrong. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10477409/Bob-sledder-American-Samoa-goes-topless-23F-temperatures-Beijing.html

    Fair enough, but don't forget that it was the IOC's greed and corruption that drove these Olympics away from Norway, their logical home.

    Think Nathan Crumpton had had to put in a bit of - errm - special gym work to get that authentically Polynesian flag-bearer look.
  8. Grassmarket
    Had substitute flag-bearers.

    Yeah, no drinking tonight - unusual for a Friday - then up at about 05:30 for slopestyle catch-up & second curling then a straight run through to afternoon. Will sacrifice Speed skating & Luge for later.

    Winnie is Winnie the Pooh, who stands in the same relation to President Xi as Clark Kent does to Superman. https://www.shopdisney.co.uk/disney-store-winnie-the-pooh-medium-soft-toy-412318729939.html?isProductSearch=0&guestFacing=Characters%20%26%20Movies-Popular%20Characters-Winnie%20the%20Pooh&plpPosition=3

    I always do.

    This was how ceremonies used to be until the 1960s - I went through all the videos back before London & it was always a military-type parade.

    President Xi gets the gratitude of the world’s hostages.
  14. Grassmarket
    Yeah, thought the Mayor was throwing some shade there, not giving him the proper build-up.
  15. Grassmarket
    OK, that’s enough athletes, can we finally have some speeches?
  16. Grassmarket
    Have China sent a team?
  17. Grassmarket
    Mongolian delegations have historically been unwelcome in Beijing.
  18. Grassmarket
    So even in the Chinese alphabet must come after .
  19. Grassmarket
    They have an alpine gold & actually hosted an Alpine World Cup event!
  20. Grassmarket
    Was hoping that Saudi Arabia would come on to the Can Can.
  21. Grassmarket
    Jacque Mourão gets big mention on the BBC!
  22. Grassmarket
    Some comic moments with the collision of the Nations & the medley of light classical music. Ecuador enter to the alternative British national anthem.
  23. Grassmarket
    Ah,Turkey, ethnic & linguistic descendants of the Uyghurs.
  24. Grassmarket
    Sorry, was it the guy on the left or right who was the Olympic Champion in Fencing in 1976?
  25. Grassmarket
    I was living in Glasgow in the 80s. Certainly these was no such thing as “street dance” but there a lot of stupid haircuts.
