Aww, missed everybody, fell asleep after dinner - think I must be getting old, or maybe too much wine.

Had a nice little chat with Marilyn, could just about hear her voice over the loud music.........son and hubby are both music mad, sometimes we have 2 different lots going at once.

Don't worry about Ancestry Marilyn, you'll soon get the hang of it, the only thing you have to be careful with, is who you delete.

Shelly, we're sure to get a gold in the Olympics with you doing gymnastics.

Errrrr, the only races I won at school were the 3 legged ones.......don't think they do that in the Olympics.

Linda and Mo could probably knit for England but don't think that's an Olympic event either.

Running is definitely in there...........but Marilyn's got that covered.

Oh........ Yvonne could get us an Equestrian gold.

Now, what about Rita? She's very good at flirting with men. Every trip we go on, you can bet your life Rita gets the hunk. But is flirting an Olympic event?

Yachting (or is it called sailing?) is in the Olympics, so that's probably what Stephen will do.

Jean needs to recuperate so we'll let her sit and wave flags.

Wonder if we get any breakfast in the morning, poor Stephen doing all that extra work to make up for the money he spent on Saturday.

MTG, I need a partner for my 3-legged race, are you any good at that?



Edit: I might have a go at the sack race as well.

No good at the egg & spoon race, I kept dropping the egg, got disqualified once for keeping me thumb on the egg.

Rita, I think it starts in Delhi next week, that doesn't give us much time to practice.

Thank you for the breakfast Linda, we need to build our strength up.

Hi to MTG of course you can pop in whenever you want ....you pay the same as all of us ....
But looks like Pauline wants to borrow your leg ....LOL

Got to do my packing today and change all bed sheets as my friend and her hubby might say for a few days on our way back from Cornwall, don't want her talking about not having nice smelly sheets ...

Stephen... I have just thought do they have Darts in the Olympics ? because Mo is top dog for that...... well we can make it a game to participate in as it is sporty !

If I can't play darts, can I do the hoola hoop. I know they are not proper Olympic sports, but this is the GR games.
We could have a marbles championship, ( perhaps not, I lost me marbles years ago ), but I could always borrow some from somewhere.
The conkers are just starting to ripen, so they may be ready for our games.
All the really energetic games can be left up to the young uns. And unfortunately for you, that does include me. LOL

Cycling.

Long Jump

Mo in Kent Report 23 Sep 2010 15:51

Hmmmm mud wrestling sounds interesting Rita. You haven't seen me on my bike. The last time I rode it, after 40 years of no cycling, I ended up in a pile of stinging nettles,and after I rode into a wall going over the railway bridge, I gave up and put it in the shed,and thats where it's going to stay.
Thats why I like any games that keep my feet on the ground.
