Paralympics have started...

If you want to feel humble and enjoy the kinds of activities winter games have...and are awake at 1amish GMT...then have a watch!

Once the rugby is finished...

[Hidden in reply to PMRpro]

Yes just taping rugby.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Hidden]

Watching it live, in Italian. They do love their rugby!

[SheffieldJane in reply to PMRpro]

Do they have dancing girls. ( my limited experience of Italian TV)

[Hidden in reply to SheffieldJane]

Now you're talking ☺️

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to SheffieldJane]

Not in rugby no! Far fewer tits and bums generally than there were when Berlusconi was in charge of TV. But a deep cleavage and short skirt still seems to be de rigeur ...

[SheffieldJane in reply to PMRpro]

The first time I tuned into an Italian TV station, in Berlusconi’s day, it was quite a culture shock. He’s gaining popularity again isn’t he? At the ripe old age of 81.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to SheffieldJane]

Mercifully he can't take a place in the parliament - he's still banned. But he is quite adept at power behind the throne. And currently - it is a bit of a mess...

[Hidden in reply to PMRpro]

I truly thought he was dead. Out of sight when you don't watch any news if you can help it.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Hidden]

We get regular updates as he is sent back to court or found guilty/got away with it and as the latest bunga-bunga bung is found...

[SheffieldJane in reply to PMRpro]

Interesting. Sorry to deviate from the much more edifying topics of the Winter Paralympics and the Rugby.

Murdoch + Boris = Berlusconi here.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to SheffieldJane]

But his plastic surgeon is far better...

[SheffieldJane in reply to PMRpro]

You should see his portrait in the attic.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to SheffieldJane]

Hahahahahahaha!!!!

Just flipped on the tube and the skiers were flying down the slope. Unbelievable!

[Hidden in reply to Nones]

Was it the seated?

[Nones in reply to Hidden]

Yes

[Hidden in reply to Nones]

If I remember rightly the visually impaired do a biathlon. Very impressive. Not to mention visually impaired and amputees skiing.
