    This, in a nutshell, is why I find the LibDems so distasteful. Perpetual fence-sitters IMO.

    Her grandfather, father and brother were / are racehorse trainers - so they're not 'daddy's horses' but rather horses that 'daddy' trained.

    That convinces me that my opinion is correct then

    I thought Matt Baker was up there with the best of commentators. OK he's a very experienced broadcaster anyway and a former gymnast, but his enthusiasm for the gymnastics was infectious, especially compared to his two co-commentators who gave great insight to the technical aspects but who both have very boring voices.

    Just think of yourself and translate it to the other side of the political spectrum. Easy

    I tried to sign up for the very first time and I was rejected. Nothing at all in my name to suggest I was a red. Perhaps they just don't accept Yahoo addresses?

    Blimey I'm old enough to remember the swimming baths before then! And the Lido. I took my grandchildren to an open-air pool last Thursday and I was telling my SiL about the Lido. What a wonderful place it was.

    I'm sure I heard one of the commentators on the rowing heats earlier this week say that some teams would deliberately not win a first heat but rather wait for the repecharge to qualify for the semis so that they didn't meet the strongest teams in the semis. I may have misunderstood but at the time I thought that wasn't the Olympic spirit either. It's a bit like football teams putting out weak teams for trophies when they're concentrating on league positions, I guess.
