Sorry Simon,

I just cannot get excited by this.

Well until the womens beach volley ball, womens swimming, womens............................. :D

I still think Sharon Davies is a stunner..................................

(she used to live not too far from me)

[Simon]

Thoughts of Sharon Davies have prompted me to open my arms and reopen the Olympics competition. The track and field doesn't start till next weekend and I may have been a bit hasty with the initial closing date for entries.

If you missed out you can still post your entry up till 5.00 p.m. Wednesday 18 August.

Cue opening of floodgates!

Simon
