Citius Altius Fortius

The Olympics are upon us.

Whilst I generally enjoy the orgy of sport, there are too many events.  The Olympic Motto: Citius Altius Fortius means Faster, Higher, Stronger.  An admirable motto and one they should stick to. 

I can't be the only one to welcome the removal of (among others):

• Gymnastics (those precocious little girls - yuk)
  
• Football (it's a joke - ask Sir Alex)
  
• Tennis (same as football)
  
• Hockey
  
• Beach Volleyball (nice to watch though)
  
• That business where the horse walks backwards - Dressage I think

And let's not mention synchronised swimming.
