Aussie....Canada?
Just wondering how you Aussies and Candians are doing at the olympics?
Aussie shouldnt feel to bad, lithuania only has one gold to....
You might need to revaluate you supposed finish of 5th on the table though.....
Oh look Steve, Dave, Jules.....NZ is 12th! But you probably all ready know that......because every kiwi within a hundred mile radius is going to tell you!

The Kiwis do incredibly well, by all means be proud of it, and tell everybody.
ReplyDeleteGermany is doing so so in mho, and Canada is doing a great job staying out of the way of success.
Come on Sonja.....You are supposed to bite and give me a hard time for giving you guys crap.....
Deleteyou are not supposed to be nice to me.
You mean the Olympics are happening right now?
ReplyDeleteKidding.........I never did get into watching them, summer or winter. And I don't much care which country is better at what sport. Does that make me unpatriotic?
Brandy....sigh......what am I to do with you ......`.
DeleteI agree with you Brandy. When I woke up this morning to my alarm (which is set to a radio station) that normally has a nice soothing rock song, I was greeted by commentary on a race in the Olympics, that sounded like a commentary on a horse race. It put me off for the whole day (normally I end up humming the song I woke up to all day) and it's moved my apathy for the Olympics towards almost out and out hate. Grrr
ReplyDeleteBut it is nice to see your country doing well in any international event isnt it Roger, well done to the Kiwis :D
Man...I am trying to get a bite out of you Aussies, with oit much luck so far...
DeleteHahaha .. maybe you are too subtle Roger :D
DeleteThe rowing has just been incredible - and still maybe a couple to come I think! Hats off to the team!
ReplyDeleteLove Lauren Boyle's attitude when she came 4th too!
Bloody kiwi so and so.....
ReplyDeleteOur swimmers should spend more time swimming rather than tweeting and crying.
Thanks mate..........you know we love you guys.....we really love you when you are losing......:)
DeleteLOL. I was expecting to see more of a tongue lashing than you have gotten. Too soft? ;) Not up to kiwi standards? Need to try harder?
ReplyDeleteThe Aussies always go hiding when things dont go to plan
DeleteRog,
ReplyDeleteAnd you tried so hard to get a bite and they wouldn't play ball, hehe. I expected a "get stuffed" from Sonja at the very least as she well knows how your sense of humour operates *grin*
Oh, and this from today's Melbourne Age newspaper:
Delete.....but the real challenge to Australia’s sporting self-esteem has been issued by the Kiwis who, with three gold medals (all from rowing), were perched seven places higher than Australia on the medal table. Which, in time-honoured tradition, will prompt us to embrace the spirit of great Australasians Neil Finn, Russell Crowe and Phar Lap and to note that, with four gold medals, Team Oceania is doing quite well.
Amazing they still only have one gold even now, If we finish above them on the medal count there could be a lot of mileage in that! Great quote,and expected as usual.
DeleteHowz it going for you now champ?
ReplyDeleteVery proud on Aus Zealand is going...
ReplyDeleteHahaha....Gold to that man! Yeah, couldn't really give a toss about the 'limpics.....but how about those Canadians.....?
ReplyDeleteThe Canadians remain very quiet....
DeleteI'm saying nothing. Well apart from pointing out that a large percentage of GB medals have been won by Scots.
ReplyDeleteGet it up ye.
