Here I sit, late at night, having just watched Canada win its 5th Olympic gold medal! Ice dancing has been my favourite Olympic sport ever since the glory days of Torvill and Dean, and the latest Olympic ice dance champions are from my new home of London and nearby Ilderton. I found the pairs figure skating disappointing, but the ice dance competition was truly compelling. At the last minute I considered going to join other fans at the Ilderton community centre, which is only about 20 minutes from where I live, but having consumed some wine while watching the sport I figured that I would probably be "over the limit" so refrained from driving, especially after today's big snowstorm. Instead, I watched the medal ceremony at home with a shedding dog on my lap. These are the second Olympic gold medalists from London in 2010 - maybe I can get more fit here! (Hey, stranger things have happened.)
I don't want to talk about the hockey game.
