Games

To catch up I'm going to concentrate on the Commonwealth Games, so if that's not your thing why not?

Starting with gymnastics there is the Welsh (in the 'It's Saint Patrick's Day so I'm Irish' way) David Eaton who regular readers will know likes to pull faces [more David 1 and 2] , as does Kiwi Mark Holyokee, Scotland's Adam Cox, who looks oddly like England's Kristian Thomas (who has a welsh name), Michael Cosgrave of Northern Ireland concentrates, while South Africa's Gerhard Swiegers tells his coach 'not tonight', and Canadian Nathan Gafuik works his cotton socks off, bless (and for those who moan he may look younger but he's 21). As an aside to ponder is the vast range of positions gymnasts are limber enough to get into enough to make up for them all being about 4 foot tall? Discuss. 3,000 words, extra marks of diagrams.

English swimmer Liam Tancock (now there's a surname that must have an interesting origin) won medals, Australian Eamon Sullivan in speedos, and South Africans Lyndon Ferns and Ryk Neethling look happy together.

Finally from Martin comes today's random cute guy.
