I was glued to the telly during the 4 weeks of the Football (some strangely call it soccer 🤔) Euro 2024 from mid June to mid July. That's enough. Now enjoying the summer outdoors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m there, Graeme. So many interesting sports, and so few usually shown in TV. Including my sports, field hockey. Plus, I do not see the point with the time zone… 😅 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only for a few years, the taste in some of these doping-infected disciplines smells too bad... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they all chip in and buy an apartment high story of coarse on the Gold Coast, for cheap rent I may be tempted.😮 That East Coast I can handle. cheers Gumby 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
