Glad to see.you with a positive look to the future

I’ve done 5 of them

In truth, having binocular vision would be number one on the “Things to do” list. Having an alcoholic drink would be a natural follow on from that.

2000 in Sydney I was at both. Was working as a steward at the first one in the same stadium where the basketball was on the first week and also snuck in to the night of the relay finals in the main stadium. Saw Marion Jones, Michael Johnson, maurees green, Cathy freeman and Sonia coming 6th in the 10k final.

Honreal. 2000 was a savage Olympics. The Romanian lassie who won the gymnastics had the gold medal taken off her for taking a Lemsip. A proper sport with proper rules.

I’d say there’s many forumites here who’d happily bring you to any of those if you asked

Could be a bit embarrassing having to wear a name tag for recognition purposes.

It worked well for @artfoley and @Garda_Sean_Horgan at a TFK Xmas jamboree
