I've enjoyed watching the slopestyle snowboarding (no Brits in it). Our lad Musgrave was 17th in the skiathlon (at least he didn't get lapped) and the mixed doubles curlers are guaranteed to get out of the RoundRobin and into the next stage (whish is hopefully what they've been saving themselves for ;) )

One of the Gherkin sisters made it into the last round of the moguls. First Brit to do that. The other sister was 23rd?

Curling is the highlight for me so far - great chance of a medal - but I’m biased as I’ve been a player for years 😀 It’s a small enough sport that Evan as a bog standard club curler I find myself playing against Bruce Mouat (men’s skip) a couple of times a year. I have a game against Jenn Dodds’ (his doubles partner) dad tomorrow night!

That’s cool. Loads of my neighbours play down at Forfar. It’s a good winter sport for farmers.

We went for a taster session a couple of years ago. It was fun and I thought I might give it a go, but then Covid….

Missed out on bronze. :-( Sad for them, they had a great chance. But strong performances from Sweden etc.

Fingers crossed for Rydings! :-) G

Was always going to be hard to raise themselves for the bronze medal match given the disappointment of yesterday's close-fought semi. The Swedes on the other hand were well beaten in their semi and able to put that behind them and refocus.

I know most will be at silly o'clock so maybe leave details until after the highlights programme or use the spoiler.
