I think Team GB is going to struggle to get anywhere near their
previous Olympic Medal Tally as they have already missed out on a Couple of
good opportunities. As for Ireland I ain’t seen a Paddy in anything so far and
the 65 strong Team can’t all be Boxers. At least I hope not as though it’s
where we usually Rack up a few Medals it’s also a Sport that doesn’t appeal to
yours truly. At least the Ghastly Shooting and Archery [is this really Sport]
are almost finished. Back in the day we had a few Archers [seriously] Operating
out of Belfast side streets and no Shortage of Gun Totting Folk but alas none of
them seem to have made the Olympic Team. Maybe they did make the Cut but
sticking to their Ideology the Fenians have refused to play for Team GB and the
Loyalists have refused to play Ireland. Enough Waffle the Truth is one long ago
day myself and two Friends came across a Lone Man who was taking Pot Shots with
a Long Bow at a Cat he had Suspended from a Tree, and yes even in the Nutty
1970’s Belfast this was deemed quite Strange, but I Suspect there would have
been less Empty Olympic Seats if this Discipline had been Included!
