... and so I'll be bringing you a few scenes every day.

Today is the opening ceremony. Skater Andrei arrives in the stadium with the Olympic torch.

Thank you @ChessieFL it would have been slightly more brilliant if I hadn't posted the photos in the wrong order! Grin

Marlene reminds me of Marlene Boyce in Only Fools and Horses! I am imagining her in the ski jumping!!

Haha, Marlene is more like a Marlene Dietrich I think! Well at least with the pronunciation of her name... Grin

So exciting! I am so glad you covered the Playmolympics snowboard cross, it was amazing to watch. I watched ski jumping the other night, they travel over 100 m . I couldn’t believe it, must be like flying........

Thankyou for all your hard work SomuchtoBits.

Yes, I always imagine Marlene’s name being pronounced with Boycie’s accent!

No illegal substances in Playmobil Olympics I assume - we must be vigilant!

Ah no, they are all very well behaved! Although again if the puddingheads had been competing it might have been a different story... Wink

You must have done a lot of prior research SoMuch! The Playmolanders don’t seem to have had any trips or falls. They’re obviously very skilled!

SoMuchToBits · 15/02/2022 12:35

Well, theses are just the edited highlights, so I expect some of them have had falls while we weren't looking!

And yes, I know a lot more about quite a few winter sports than I did a few months ago! Grin

Very quiet here today, maybe everyone is glued to the real thing! There will be more scenes tomorrow though. :-)
