I do love watching speed skating, there's something mesmerising about it. I'd love to have a go...

The luge bothers me. I saw a bit of the men's runs... they push off, lay down and the camera is positioned in such away that they're suddenly coming at you scrotum first. It's not a good look.

but yeah my country has done well so far in terms of medals, unexpected as well for Yara who wasn't a fave for us at all, that was Suzanne Schulting who flopped in the heats

^ Yeah. Netherlands are lucky (well not really as they have worked hard at that) that they have an Olympic winter sports event where very few can touch them and they can dominate.

In other news Finland had slight failures on Single Sprints. 5th place was the best place we could do.

Also Finns lost 4-1 to Canada in the Womens Hockey.
