UK did solid work in curling, well done to their rinks! I'm happy for Team Gushue, which got a bronze. I was hopeful for more, he's a fantastic skip with a talented team. So disappointed Jennifer Jones didn't get further in the medal hunt, but that just goes to show how competitive world curling has gotten. I also like to cheer for Sweden's Hasselborg, hope her crew can get the bronze!

The GB team ended up with a Gold (Women's curling) and a Silver (Men's curling), so a final tally of 2 is less than the 3-7 medals that were predicted before the games began.

Slightly galling to see we're behind Australia on the medal table! ;)

Finally got around to watch the final! What a great match indeed! Felt really bad for Japan though with that big loss of 4 points in that one end...But they were real troopers and without a doubt the most colorful and positive team on the ice I have ever seen! Such a delight to watch them play.

But ofcourse I have to be extremely happy for Eve Muirhead for finally getting the gold that she most certainly deserves...being probably one of the best (if not THE best) in the world..


About the whole olympics...Finland did waaaay better than anyone expected. 8 medals and 2 of them GOLD! That was quite something. So gotta be happy about that...Finland is slowly coming back as wintersport nation...naturally we're still faaaar behind from where we used to be...but still...moving in the right direction atleast.
