Winter Olympics - Opening Ceremony this evening

[Silverbirchleaf]

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

Better not tucked in though

Too busy yakking I expect. Very chatty people the Mongolians.

Horses and yurts?

Please let NZ do an impromptu Haka

Me too. Been to Norway and went to Lillehammer where they had the Olympic ski jumping years ago.

NZ coming as ninja assassins.

That's not my Olympic Team ~ their outfits are too black . . . .

Would have loved that!

Cloggies utterly predictable.

The New Zealand bouncers have arrived.

2.5 million people with 2.5 million horses.

Maybe if they had a snow horse riding event? Olympic yak herding?

They could pull sleds

Norwegian flag-bearer looks overwhelmed by responsibility...

Netherlands team won’t get lost in the snow.

Skijoring- google it, amazing sport.

Have we had France yet?

Thanks @Silverbirchleaf , sorry, I didn’t see this one before I started mine, but I did search! 🙈

That’s fine, you qualify for one.

I thought the Netherlands had a look of postal workers about them.

Those outfits look like outdoor scrubs!

Must have been when I was clearing up in the kitchen - I missed GB too

Pony skating!

One for Puerto Rico

Will be at the end as they were the previous hosts, along with USA (next host) and Italy (current host).

Genuinely don’t remember. Must have not been paying attention.
