Pothunter Aug 2021 9:42am, 9 Aug 2021 4,569 posts	0 Pothunter I was lucky enough to get a ticket in the main stadium one evening for the Paralympics in 2012. It was the night Oscar Pistorius lost to the Brazilian guy and David Weir won the 5000m. The atmosphere was incredible.
Ocelot Spleens Aug 2021 9:47am, 9 Aug 2021 31,637 posts	0 Ocelot Spleens I will happily sit and watch, like I will with almost any sport (save golf, tennis and formula 1, formula one is the worst port on the planet, rugby union overwrought, portentous, bombast is becoming a pet hate), but much like the stuff that has just finished, the hours are all wrong, so if I am sitting here, I will see it, if not, I won't.
um Aug 2021 10:34am, 9 Aug 2021 5,017 posts	0 um My younger daughter is participating (if you didn't already spot it), so I will probably be inundating you with news. At 2 or 3 am. Assuming Ch4 has it on.

Night-owl Aug 2021 3:56pm, 9 Aug 2021 37,592 posts	0 Night-owl I'm looking forward to it like sport of any nature Good news about Channel 4 obviously BBC didn't want to advertise that
