I hope whoever is working on drone technology sorts out the annoying whizzing noise that has punctuated many events

Watching the curling final, it just seems wrong that Sweden have the red stones and the USA have the yellow ones.

Bit of a boring day, not a lot grabbing the interest today. Might watch the Spice Girl dancers in a while.

Thrilling end to the Ice Dance in the figure skating with France pipping the USA to gold.

The end of the men's double luge earlier was quite exciting. Italy won gold from third place before the final run. USA dropped from first to sixth.

The big question of course, would you rather be on top or down below?

The main thing is that they make the competitors wear full body condoms so it's all quite safe.

I felt sorry for them but I liked the Canadian routine to ‘Vincent’, and I don’t know that the Scottish extravaganza ( whilst clearly brilliant) was better than ‘Starry Starry Night’. Still, hopefully they’ll be back. The other GB pair who did a Romeo and Juliet routine look very promising!

The one time I watch the figure skating 😡. I blame The Proclaimers. At least we weren't 4th.

Come on now, we all watched Ravel's Boléro. Even the Irish were cheering on Torvill & Dean.

Before my time. I was probably watching the twists and turns of some mutant turtles.

We always seem to do well at Skellington.
