Winter Olympics - Opening Ceremony this evening

[Silverbirchleaf]

Opening ceremony tonight, from 6.30pm on BBC2. Surprised it’s not on BBC1.

Guess they’ve got other things on their mind at the moment.

Someone would start a thread in AIBU if you wore it to Tesco tbf.

Men. What do they know?

I agree, it looks fab.

Scooter Sled? Spikes on the pushers boots to get a grip. You could have Pair Scooter Sled , one pusher on either side. It would be too fast for me though, I think I’ll stick to Slide Sledding.

Not that kind of snow.

They’re going on about “gender parity” but it’s very white. Especially compared to the summer olympics

Eritrea!

Looks like they are going out on playground duty 😂😂

Eritrea coats are gorgeous.

Take note, Denmark!

🤔🤣

Denmark's coats are just so disappointing. Especially after Colombia with their giant red pockets.

Estonia had better not venture into the China camp. They'll get lost.

I've just tuned in--I was going to ask if someone could explain the geography to me? The team comes into what looks like a stadium through a big gold ring, but then is suddenly in a village...Is the ring a Stargate? Then I figured out they were in different locations. But what is the big swirl meant to represent? Is it like the yellow brick road? Also, yay Estonia dancing!

Can't they get their skates on?🤔

Ah, I totally missed that! Maybe need a toot myself to wake up!

My eyes hurt a little though 😂

Maybe Denmark were trying to show they are good at camouflagenot in the snow though

Nice ombré there from Finland

Finland owning it already.

Finland bringing back the coat style. Even Hazel wants one.

You could train with a Tesco’s shopping trolley - bonus points if it had a wonky wheel.

Finland coats are cool

The Finnish contingent is pretty huge! I feel like the entire nation of Finland is genetically programmed to be great at sport! They have three f1 champions in 75 years for a country that is so clearly heavily invested in winter sport!

I loved Denmark when I went there last year.

Diana Davis doesn't sound very Georgian.
