Sorry, guys....you may not see too much of me over the next 2 weeks!!
Hi guys,
I do post for an hour in the morning before shooting off to work.....but in the evening it's OLYMPIC time, and I am glued to the TV watching some my favourite events like Swimming, Gymnastics and Weight-lifting.....and next week it's gonna be the exciting Track & Field events. So....sorry if I won't be around too much until the 24th of this month!! That's when the games end!! And to those of you who are heaving a sigh of relief, I say..... Cheers - JJ

JJ there is no way that you are going to be able to resist Or do you mean instead of doing a hundred posts a day you are going to restrict yourself to fifty?
Enjoy the games |

I love watching the Olympics as well, I'll sit on the lounge with a laptop so I can check on TRF and watch the games at the same time.

Although I don't believe one word of this, I could almost hear that collective sigh of relief roaring over the globe! This AWOL time gives lesser gods the opportunity to work on their post count

JJ: there is a possible solution. Just get yourself one of those newfangled Speedo super-suits. You can get your Olympics on while posting, and it will reduce wind drag as you race back and forth between the couch and the computer.

So Zemina gets a break every four years also. I hear you won gold back in '68 for the fastest shuttlecock.
