Paralympics

A bit late I know, but I went with Csilla and friend to watch a day of paralympics - sadly no tickets for Oscar available and no olympic park tickets either :o(


 Woo-Hoo a surprise Mandeville spotting!

 sitting volleyball


 Brazil vs Slovenia


 Brazil wins!!

 Turkey beat Russia in the table tennis - well done!

 Boccia - a fairly slow sport for folks with fairly bad cases of cerebal palsy. A bit like lawn bowls. And the ref has stolen someones table tennis bat!

 The Korean has excellent technique

 Jubilant celebrations for China!

 Back for more sitting volleyball - the synchronised court sweeping team have been training for months for this event!

 Germany vs Bosnia Herzegovina - wait a minute, why are they playing with 2 balls?

 Victory for Bosnia Herzegovina

 Only gold medal match I saw, and its gold for Poland in the wheelchair fencing!

Take that Csilla, Wenlock and Mandeville no 85 for me!
