I'm sure you're right and horses can be happy while still serving humans but they are conditioned to do these acts. It didn't happen that, one day, a horse spied an elderly gentleman struggling with his Tesco bags and offered to help him out. They can be mistreated and pushed to the point of breaking. It'd be hypocritical to disagree with the services of all animals. But I think certain services should be looked at. To me, a dancing horse looks really forced and unnatural. But I don't know how the horses feel about it. I prefer to criticise, of course, from a position of ignorance. |

Re: London 2012 Olympics
Didn't even know we were any good at dressage. Surprised enough at Gold and Bronze in the triathlon lol
Looks like Trott might miss the gold, but Hoy and Pendleton are looking good for theirs. Another 2 more Gold by the end of tonight! |

Re: London 2012 Olympics
I read France is claiming Britain are using special wheels on the bikes to give them an edge and not the ones all other teams are using... to be honest i do question why team GB are so serective with the wheels on the bikes cos as soon as the race is over they cover the wheels in a bag.

Re: London 2012 Olympics
Sour grapes I think. Hoy and Pendleton were that good before, difference is we have invested far more heavily into all the cycling events. Same thing has happened in the Boxing.

Re: London 2012 Olympics
Well done Laura Trott! Just one year older than me and born in the same hospital as me! She definatly deserved it, and I like how smily she is.
Went up to London today, just to soak up the atmosphere and it was definatly worth it. Can't believe how well the transport network has coped with the Olympics, and I loved how many of the staff were cheering the passengers on with the megaphones. I'm certainly not used to people being so cheerful in London...i'm sure it will all go back to normal after the games lol. |

Re: London 2012 Olympics
Nice ride from Sir Chris :trophy2: Nice to see him go out on a high. Shame Victoria Pendleton couldnt do the same. Seems like those officials have had it in for her especially as she was virtually pushed out of her lane for the sprint. But a silvers better than nothing and weve topped the cycling medals again.

no thats not it - but thanks for replying- I know the official tune of Olympics is by Elbow - but this tune is different - they play it a lot in between different events - maybe its acoustics - I will try and have a look again later meself - |
