Gold for Scotland! (sorry...britain!)

[tenchu]

Hey tim, do you want to make that bet about britain winning at the curling? I think the british women will win, beating canada on the way. Wait a minute, they already have!!!!!!!

Well done Rhona and the crew!!!!

And yes, it was an all Scot effort, so a big thanks to them!!!

2 medals and it becomes something like our most succesful winter olympics since 1936 (ish)

...there's a curling club very near where I live and actually tried it several years ago...it's a fascinating game....reminded me a little of Boccie that i played often with my Grandfather years ago...much like chess, it's a game of strategy ...i only question it's validity as an Olympic sport cuz someone as fat and out of shape as me can excel in it.:lol:

I love it because Curling is HUGE in Canada, and they can't even win the gold. Now, we just need the Canadians to lose to Belarus!!!!

I actually find Curling rather interesting, I can sit down and watch it.

I reckon we'd be an awesome sight!!!!

The other one I reckon I could do is the Skeleton! Head first at 80mpd in a dinner tray! Plus I bet I'd look very fetching in a tight Lycra aeorodynamic suit :hurl:

....we'd look like "double Os" out there....but I bet I can throw those 42lb curling stones like a duckpin bowling bowl....wham...smash.....they'll think twice about blocking our stones next time...

...I think I'd look pretty good as a figure skater....I'd look like the figure '0'.
