Ready for the Eurogames

Four days till I arrive in Rotterdam for the 2011 Eurogames.  I am forsaking tennis this time to do Track & Field instead. More events + less competition = possible medals!

Went to the George House Trust sports day in Manchester last weekend and was delighted to get a chance to learn how to throw the hammer and the discus. I am planning to have a go at these two events plus the javelin, shot putt, 100m, 200m and the long jump! I suspect that as usual I may be a one-man Team Lancashire at these Games but that's OK.

I have hosted housing arranged with a straight couple who sound really nice.
