I became a fan of Curling after spending the better part of February, one year, in Toronto. Curling seemed to be the national Sport of Canada.
I spent several evenings sitting in the hotel Bar, with a few pints of Steam Whistle, watching the Curling championships.
So I will be cheering Britain on as they try to take home another Gold medal.

Should be an exciting watch - disappointing that the ladies went out but we can't win them all (usually we can't win any of them).

Thanks for your support Lars, and I think our lads are going to need as much help as possible having to play the unbeaten Canadians in the final - as you have said, possibly Canada's most popular sport (I would think that's a toss up with the ice hockey though). I'm keeping my fingers crossed for young Miss Christie in the 1000 metres speed skating - she's had some misfortune so far, but the way she shot past the other skaters like a Formula 1 racing car to ahieve the final bodes very well, barring accidents etc. of course ! :guitarist

Well Bryn our girls didn't get 'pushed out' of the medals - they beat Switzerland and got the bronze !!!!! Well done our girls !!!! We have a podium. Canada have just beaten Sweden to get the gold, well done all you girls ! Canada - Gold, Sweden - Silver, Britain - Bronze. Thanks Lars once again for wishing our girls well.

nothing more to say except that it was found that some people around the world didn't realise there is snow in Australia.
