  1. Oh dear, horrible second half from Laura.
  2. Bandy hockey, ice speedway...
  3. Also natural track luge, telemark skiing, errr.....
  4. Still a few to go though - snowboard cross, half-pipe, aerials, moguls.
  5. Off we go in a very snowy Lake Placid.
  6. Geez Norwegian men’s B-Team easily better than the rest of the world, depressing stuff.
  7. Johaug already showered, changed her clothes, had a cup of tea & a sandwich before anyone else finishes.
  8. Just holding on to 30th at the transition.
  9. Crikey, there’s another Weng now - LU Weng.
  10. Thing is, I get the impression, that all the other girls really hate her! Usually when someone does really well, all the other girls are out with hugs & kisses. With Ledecka.....complete nothing! Got to say, I am very glad I watched that live!
  11. Spectators have set sail on the Marie Celeste.
  12. Really does not look good for racing.
  13. Not looking good at all for the ladies. Will be dark before they finish.
  14. 30 minute start delay for the women’s downhill in Lake Louise. ES Player £39 a year in the UK, picture quality perfect. Well, some people say that pq is not good for tennis, but looks OK for my sports.
  15. Always wonder if they get lessons in Hot Seat etiquette. Or is it like in baseball where if you break the Unwritten Rules they will throw fastballs at your head?
  16. Well, our problem is that we are so nice everyone wants to stay here. Not a problem Russia has, so I’m told.
  17. And of course Russian bureaucracy has a centuries-old reputation for helpfulness and willingness to bend the rules.
  18. Great story here SEA Games: Athlete finally wins gold - 38 years after debut https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-50682525
  19. Unusual for biathletes to get such an injury, it’s normally a low-impact sport. Maybe a crash during the summer?
  20. I remember many years ago when, as an experiment the IBU gave a Chinese guy a pair of Norwegian-prepared skis for a weekend. Immediately gained about 30 places over average.
  21. When I started watching 20 years ago, almost every weekend was Individual + Sprint + Relay.
  22. He would not be an automatic pick. GB already has James Woods covering slopestyle & Big Air, many times medallist in World Cups, Champs & X-Games. We don’t have much in half-pipe though.
  23. Strangely enough, like many sports, Britain invented race walking as a sport, and it was hugely popular in the 19th Century. We still were winning medals up until the 1960s. Unfortunately now people in Britain don’t like it because the governing body cannot consistently enforce the sports’ own definition of what walking is.
  24. It’s all live on BBC Streaming in the UK, don’t know about elsewhere.
