You mean award shows?

I doubt that she will. She surely deserves the nomination, but orienteering is too small for me to believe that she will get the win.

She could end up in the final 3 (I would be pretty surprised if Wozzie and Valgren doesn't get 2 of the 3 spots).

Then the rest of us will do it for you

Emma Aastrand as well

Thought you were a proper Olympics nerd and yet you don't recognize 3 Olympic Medalists (Emma Aastrand and Rytter Juhl/Pedersen)... I'm disappointed! Dufour is one of the top dressage riders, Helle Frederiksen long distance triathlete, Maja Alm one of the top orienteerers (but trying to qualify for the Olympics on the 5000m) and Stinna Tange is World Champion in para-dressage.

With some Danish help

Well. In Denmark the complete field for Sports Name of the Year has also been announced: Amalie Didriksen Annika Langvad Ashli Williamson and Bjørn Bitsch Caroline Wozniacki Cathrine Dufour Emma Aastrand Jørgensen Helle Frederiksen Kamilla Rytter Juhl and Christinna Pedersen Lars Eller Magnus Cort Maja Alm Michael Valgren Pernille Harder Stinna Tange Kaastrup Thorbjørn Olesen

Sorry, but that sounds like some crazy idea that the IOC could have come up with!

Well. The Danish just noticed that Chervotkin got best time at 2.2. That's what... 3 or 4 minutes ago and was shown!

Well. I'm looking forward to freestyle. Maybe Johaug can be challenged there. I just don't feel like another season of one or two skiers dominating.

A win!

Pretty decent tournament for the Nordic countries

Still considering TOISC 2019, but won't bid for annual.

I ended up with pasta and pesto as well, though I went with alla Genovese (with some chicken and a bit of vegetables)

A few (unconfirmed) rumours from the Danish jury: Small baskets have been seen by the doors of the jury members of last year's committee with the short greeting: "Agger sends his regards" The committee was created to make sure that the most deserving song won, never intended as a selfish thing working to win the competition themselves. When a coup happened last year, it seemed very clear that Denmark had to show who's the boss and so it happened. What will happen next is unsure. Meanwhile it sounds like the Danish jury, the press secretary and numerous major Danish people have meetings planned to consider the possibilities of hosting next year's contest. The only thing that seems official is that the jury president plans to hold a press conference in the beginning of the next week. If we'll hear anything before that seems highly uncertain

Spam mail from Nigerian princesses or online pharmacies?

Well. He did well, but Operation Market Garden was a bit of a letdown...

Come on. That's just old!

Who's your favourite Monty Python?

Still too early to say, but if we do, wouldn't it show that I'm still in charge?

Yeah, right!

Bacon...
