Olympic Thoughts 24.7.21

After the delightful madness of the Opening Ceremony, it’s great to get on with the sport!

I have no idea what is happening in Judo (or ‘dressing-gown wrestling’ as I like to call it) but I’m amazed they don’t end up with broken toes every time.

God, I love watching hockey. It always has the air of a game that could cause someone a very serious injury.

The boxing schedule is a bit brutal – 7 fights in 2 weeks to win a Gold Medal? Ouch!

Beach volleyball, it has to be said, really struggles to be interesting without a crowd. Maybe when the women’s tournament starts, I’ll change my mind….
