Couch potato or smashed potato who couldn't be impressed with our Olympic success. Should we all be looking to 2012 with excitement and the prospect of an even bigger medal haul, Or, will we be disappointed?</p> <p>With at least 44 medals won so far - including 18 gold - this makes these games our most successful Olympics since London in 1908, when we topped the medals table for the first (and last) time with a haul of 56 golds. Contrast this with our 36th ranking in the medals table at in Atlanta in 1996 (one gold) and we certainly seem to be to on the up. Those who remember Atlanta will remember thet it was a huge downpoint in British sporting history, a dent to our national pride and possibly our whole psyche.<br> It's a fact that many of our successful athletes are full time professionals yet they still rely heavily on lottery funding. Adolescent diving sensation Tom Daly who was just out of the medals yet finished seventh in his final (a wonderful achievement) is rightly pleased that his positioning now places him on a 'B' tier funding <u>meaning</u> - more money in order for him to receive the best coaching and back-up leading up to the London Olympics. But, what is the price of all this success? And, will we be able to afford to emulate these performances when London plays host to the games in four years time?</p> <p>These dazzling performances haven't come cheap. Apart from the sheer devotion and skill of our athletes over many years, money is also key - in this case, <strong>£190m</strong> of it. <strong>This works out at well over £10m per Team GB gold, and almost £5m per medal. Worth it? </strong><br> Well, just look at this video and judge for yourselves. I know some people are quite cynical about sport (The Olympics) and the money that's spent but our history and sporting traditions have moulded who we are as a country. Possibly it's nice to feel that we can be associated with sport instead of being known as a country who oppresses its people (women) and fanatically wants to blow other people up because they don't harbour their beliefs!<br> Anyway, the vid explains in simple pictures why attention to detail (money) needs to be made avaliable to our athletes. It may have been 4 years ago but after watching it just stop, and, as I've said, judge for yourself! </p> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/browse">Watch the latest videos on YouTube.com</a> <br> <br> <em>((Just noticed, haven't blogged for a while - take care you lot)) </em></p> <p> <small> <a href="http://teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk/2008/08/23/tantrums-drugs-prima-donnas-and-gold-bullion-4628387/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>kelly-holmeslottery-fundingsir-steve-redgravetom-daly2008london-2012chris-hoybeijing2012olympicshttp://teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk/2008/08/23/tantrums-drugs-prima-donnas-and-gold-bullion-4628387/#commentshttp://teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk/2008/02/04/new_england~3680135/tag:teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk,2008-02-04:/2008/02/04/new_england~3680135/Mon, 04 Feb 2008 22:27:35 +0100 <p><u>New England........Rugby Shirt</u></p> <p><a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/media/photo/england_new_shirt/2322869" title="England New Shirt"><img src="http://data3.blog.de/media/869/2322869_2a124a3308_m.jpg" alt="England New Shirt" vspace="5" hspace="5"></a></p> <p><strong>If you've got it you may aswell display some shameless patriotism!!! </strong> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk/2008/02/04/new_england~3680135/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>walesospreystwo-other-blokesjokesenglandwospreyshttp://teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk/2008/02/04/new_england~3680135/#commentshttp://teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk/2007/12/04/this_is_getting_unbelievably_desperate~3395881/tag:teachingandallthat.blog.co.uk,2007-12-04:/2007/12/04/this_is_getting_unbelievably_desperate~3395881/Tue, 04 Dec 2007 21:19:26 +0100 <p><strong>This is getting unbelievably desperate.

Elvis would never have duetted with Celine Dion. Why? Because he told me he would never have done that with her. How do I know?

But he would have done a duet with someone like Elton or Lily Allen or Ray Allen and Lord Charles and even my Aunty Betty.

It's interesting looking back at one's stuff and can be done easily!</p> <p>Been thinking of asking everyone to send me a link to their favourite post and putting as many in a <strong>BlogBook</strong> which I'll put on the web for as many people to download as possible. Any interest? Get back to me as I need distracting!

So, just to put the record straight for those of you who don't know who he was or where he came from I implore you to read on - because, that's what I did!</p> <p><strong>The Boring Bit</strong><br> We know the Bible gives us the direction, East and the legend states that the 3 wise men were from Persia (Iran) - Balthasar, Melchior, Caspar - thus being priests of Zarathustra religion, the 'mages' or as we know them, The Magi. Obviously the pilgrimage had some religious significance for these men, otherwise they would not have taken the trouble and risk of travelling so far. They came bearing wonderous gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. </p> <p><img src="http://data2.blog.de/media/852/1044852_7a0c7ecef2_m.jpg" alt="gfrmyrrh" vspace="5" hspace="5"></p> <p><em>(Gold (left) Frankincense (Bottom) Myrrh (Top) Go on admit it - you've never ever seen all 3 on the same picture. Infact, you're quite amazed that they should look like that. Except for the gold that is!Ooh and doesn't frankincense look like some tripe!)</em></p> <p><strong>A Bit Less Boring Than the first Bit</strong><br> Though if you ask most people what they'd like today they'd say "Easy on the myrrh and frankinstein just pop the gold under the tree with the rest of the prezzies and be on your way; oh you shouldn't have!"</p> <p><strong>Another Boring Bit</strong><br> But what became of the 4th Wise Man you're all asking? We didn't even know there was a 4th Wise man, you're having us on. Well, read on and come to your own conclusions.</p> <p><strong>Medium Boring</strong><br> So, why isn't he ever mentioned. Well, one theory is that his prezzie was the best of all and being a Westerner and not one of their clique they didn't warm to the idea of being usurped by a lesser mortal so to speak. To put it another way it's a bit like spending the whole morning slaving over the cooker preparing a mega Sunday dinner with all the trimmings and someone waltzes into the kitchen to make the gravy and then gets credit for the whole flaming dinner! So, let's cut to the chase and reveal all. Coming to the end of their journey the 3 wise men stopped off at a travel inn just outside Bethlehem (No, not 'the' travel inn they weren't around then). It was in this inn that they bumped into this Welsh guy called Wayne. When they got talking Casper asked him what brings him to these parts, as you do. Well Wayne naturally blurbed -<br> "I've come all this way to see the son of god innit. They say he'll be able to walk on water and all that a bit like Barry John who plays outside half for Wales. Wos at you got in your bags it don't half stink!"<br> On hearing this the Wise men cajoled him into displaying his gift.</p> <p><strong>"Issa bewtyful andpainted resin pair of Budgies innit. Hand crafted in China see. Look, hey've even got em perched on one of vose lookylikey trees!" </strong><br> <a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/srv/media/media_item.php?item_ID=1044939" title="000_0129"><img src="http://data2.blog.de/media/939/1044939_5c452e554e_m.jpg" alt="000_0129" vspace="5" hspace="5"></a></p> <p>On seeing this the Wise Men were alarmed knowing instantly that their gifts would look shameful and paltry against this priceless masterpiece. So,that night, they conspired as they sat by the fire to arrange unafraid the plans that they made, camelling in a wintry far off land.<br> In other words, knowing that Wayne was Welsh and he couldn't resist a bevvy or fourteen they conspired to get him completely bladdered that night so that he'd have such a hangover the next day he wouldn't be able to get out of bed enabling them to arrive at the Son of God first.</p> <p>Wayne, the 4th Wise Man came from Treherbert in the Rhondda. Legend has it he was a broken man after that. He was never seen again but settled in Ibiza where he opened a bar.</p> <p><strong>And the moral of this story is:</p> <p>Don't worry butty it was the thought that counted!</strong></p> <p><strong><br> <strong>And, just for all you out there who think it but don't ever say it the cartoon below is for you!
