It's time for the Olympic Games for the Playmobil people in our house...

[SoMuchToBits]

... and so each day I'll be bringing you all the action. Today is the opening ceremony. There is plenty of entertainment. Here is the King's Drum and Bugle Band, led by Drum Major Jermaine Jacobs.

Love that Leonid wins by lifting 8g! 😂

Well done Leonid!

Bravo Leonid!

There will be more sporting action tomorrow...

We are hoping for good weather in Playmoland tomorrow, as we will be outdoors!

@RainintheDesert thanks for posting, but I can't see what you have posted - it just looks like two small rectangles. Am I missing something?

Thank you! I've always enjoyed your previous Playmo events. Good to see Norman in the audience too😊

This is what Rain posted

Thanks @ChessieFL but all I can see in your post is the left hand half of my reply to @RainintheDesert ! Are you both posting on phones? I'm on a laptop, so maybe it's not showing up the same!

Today we are at Southbourne on the Isle of Browne for the kite surfing and windsurfing. Reginald and Joan are amongst the spectators, but Clyde Crumblehead has just stolen Joan's handbag!

He was a bit stupid to do that right outside a police station though! Police officer Campbell has seen him...

He is soon in handcuffs...

...and is led away to the cells.

Taking part in the kite surfing are Makoto, Marvin and Samuel.

Makoto is just in the lead.

The cell looks like it has a sea view!

But Marvin overtakes him and is the winner!

Marvin's wife Margaret and son Mason are among the spectators. They are very excited!

Azrael and Álvaro are taking part in the windsurfing.

Oh, what a lovely scene - even a harbour!

Must be the Paris Olympics, you'd never see a policeman that quick in the UK!!

Álvaro is winning! I'll be back a little later today with another sport.

Excellent @SoMuchToBits 🌟

@Westfacing yes, I don't suppose many police cells have a sea view. I have to say that these harbour sets are some of my favourite ever Playmobil sets.
