Paris 2024 Olympics Frederique 08:11 - Jul 26 with 63775 views | PlanetHonneywood | Bienvenue mes amis! Will be glued to the screen for the next few weeks, watching anything and everything. The Olympics are my favourite sporting event ever since I got hooked on the 1972 games. Arrived in Paris yesterday. Amazing to see so many French people smiling, being polite, and offering service without the Gallic shrug of indifference! I know Derby is up next week, anyone else visiting? If so, lets reserve tables at the Georges V and push on from there. Allez les Brits!! Edit: weather not looking good for the OC tonight. [Post edited 26 Jul 2024 8:20]

Too many near misses and hard luck stories for my liking.Although we collected a big haul of medals,we shouldn’t be finishing below countries like the Netherlands. I think it’s the first time we’ve finished below Australia for a while too. |  | |  |
