Not looking forward to the post split games. Some eye bleedingly bad football matches coming up. Just got to hope we improve dramatically for next season 🤞 🐑

He's been brilliant. Rob Walker has been great at the biathlon, makes it so exciting with his enthusiasm.

Brilliant performance from Bruce Mouat and his team. Now for the gold medal. #WinterOlympics #curling

Right, where is my closest skeleton sliding track. What a performance by both teams. #WinterOlympics Matt Weston is a legend

A man and his son (or someone else's son?) who is also his wife. The Krankies.

The more I think about this pair ever existing the more I begin to understand why this country is the way it is x

The drone camera footage at the #WinterOlympics is excellent. Ski jumping looks amazing and I now seem to be an expert in curling, luge and other random alpine events.

Really looking forward to the book and just bought my ticket for the Edinburgh event after reading this review.
