Anyone watching the curling?
Tense stuff. Enough to distract me from work anyway.
-
Surely won this. Picked up 4 in penultimate end.
-
FFS Sweden tie it up
-
In business here surely
-
Get in! Find the curling strangely compelling.
-
That was a very dramatic game. Well done GB. Shame the mens' final is 6 in the morning
-
And the womens' is 1 in the morning!
-
The men's has been moved later I thought they said? Or has it been moved to 6?
-
6.45am - can't have been many curling matches moved after an appeal by broadcasters:-

Those 45 minutes will make all the difference
-
Silver for the men
-
Yeah great effort from the men very nearly a gold, let's hope the Women can do it tomorrow.
-
Watching the curling. Good tense battle
Better than watching us 😕
-
Oh and just as I typed a 4 in the 7th end to go 8-2 up !!
-
Played a near perfect match. Controlled it from start to finish. Wish Villa could control a match like this
-
Has not gone down well here in Japan! Ha!
-
Good news to wake up to. Pleased to see Finland beat the Russians in ice hockey too.

Chuffed to bits for Eve. She’s had to take a really hard route to this; hip surgery after the last Winter Olympics, 8th in the Worlds last year meant she had to pre-qualify for this one with a new team and had to win her last 5 games in a row to get through pre-qualifying.
I like to think it was beating my team in the final of a competition in Perth 9 years ago that set her off on this journey. 🤣🤣

Any reflected glory can and should be claimed Eckybloke!

Yes, well done Team Scotland!
I thought she was crediting Alex McLeish post-victory but now I realise who she meant.

Not the idea way to get 'hard'.

Incredible watching the downhill with someone following the non sighted competitor at speed, yelling instructions about when to turn!
