“As reported by C8-er James Smith , Olympic triathletes swimming in the Seine may just be ‘going through the motions,’ but with the recent river clean up, they would be doing so undeterred,” declares William Galton of Hurstville Grove.
Alison Green’s thoughts on the necessity of a lifeguard at the Olympic pool in Paris got the attention of Anthony Franklin of Gordon who states that she “obviously never saw Eric ‘the Eel’ Moussambani at the Sydney 2000 Olympics.” Duly noted Anthony, but it’s also worth remembering that Eric did actually win his heat after both of his competitors were disqualified due to false starts.
Another snake saga now, from Margaret Grove of Concord: “My father and I came in from sailing at Menindee Lake one hot day to find my mother and sister sitting in the car, windows up, and doors locked. Apparently, they saw a snake. You can’t be too careful, but is there anyone out there who has seen a snake open a car door?”
