Day 230;
Today I have had another day of enthralment in front of the television due to the wonderful sport of Curling.
Ok so I'll start with the bad news for team GB but good for Canada as the majority of you people probably already know that Canada beat team GB's women in the Curling semifinals which limits the GB women to getting a bronze medal at best when they next play China for the Bronze medal play-off's, meanwhile the only other position is forth position which is outside of the medals.
But GB men have guaranteed a medal of either Silver or Gold if the men loose their match so it's a Silver that they are awarded and the women come forth then it team GB would have reached the heights that they reached back before the Second World War as that is hoe long it has been since they managed to get three medals, 1 Gold, 1 Silver and 1 Bronze, it was in the Winter Olympics of 1936 when they managed to get that, and the goal that has been set for them before the start of this tournament was three medals, team GB might just get four to equal their all time best which was back in the first ever Winter Olympics, that they competed in at least 1924' which were 1 Gold, 1 Silver and 2 Bronze.
But my younger sibling brought up a half decent point as team GB has got a chance to do a Mario style 1-up to their medal tally if only that speed skater doesn't get disqualified before or during the final in her next event the 1000 M speed skate. I'm not attempting to look as if I'm being harsh on her but I saw her skate her heat for the 1000 M and if I may say it was impressive, the one that I saw was from her position in the outside lane but honestly when you have got speed like that why do you tend to hug the inside line of the track, if you had done that race in either of the two previous races there is no way that they could legitimately disqualify you?
But the Team GB men's match was another match which came down to the final end as the opposition to Mr Murdock's team started off the game with the hammer so they blanked the first end, so they held the hammer the Mr Murdock's team orchestrated a steal, then the Swedish managed to take 2 on there next hammer, but now I am about to shift to the tenth end, so the score is 5-4 to the Swedish GB have the hammer but the Swedish player 4 sends his stone to take out the British stones but he makes an incorrect shot, accidentally taking out the Swedish stones, but now Mr Murdock you can almost tell that he is saying thank you for that shot as he send his final stone down to take the two stones, and the match. 6-5 to the four from Scotland, Great Britain to garantee that team gb at least equals the target of 3 medals.
