GB Record-breakers



Congratulations to Mo Farah on doing the double double and retaining his title in both the 10,000 and the 5,000 metres.

None of us can do the Mobot individually so we've teamed up to reproduce it:



(Barnaby and Will's paws sort of bent over Morris' head).

We can't quite believe it's the last day of the Olympics but well done to everyone in Team GB for doing even better than at London 2012.

Fantastic result!

Olympic Opening Ceremony


I’m looking forward to watching the Opening Ceremony for Rio 2016 though I don’t think anyone will be able to beat what Danny Boyle did in 2012.

What was even better was I got to watch it on an open-air screen with lots of other people. 

 

We stood for the National Anthem and everybody gasped when the Queen turned round and it was really her.


Unfortunately about an hour into the ceremony the heavens opened and we got drenched running back to the car. A Union Jack flag doesn’t provide much shelter even for a teddy bear.









When we got home I had to use a hairdryer to get the damp out of my fur so I missed some of the ceremony but managed to see the end.

Countdown to Rio 2016


I really enjoyed London 2012 especially Super Saturday.  Now Morris and I are counting down to Rio 2016:
