2 women athletes kissed on the podium to protest Russia's anti gay laws You should have seen the baton change.

The video is about the kiss between two members of the winning Russian relay team. There was a thought that this was in protest at the way that Russia is discriminating against those in same sex relationships, but the two athletes concerned have stated that this was not the intent. But with the way that Putin deals with people who work against him, such a statement would be a good one if you want to live a healthy life outside prison! The kids are still excited.  My wife and I however have to pack.  Oh the joy.  But it should be worth it.  My daughter does not know what she is looking forwards to the most, my wife states that it is torturing her father.  My son remembers the playground at the hotel.  I suspect both will enjoy swimming most though.  That and the beach.  I guess the only downside of going will be that I will miss the football.  me included, last year said the same thing.  And despite those doubts, we still finished in the top four come the end of the season.  We might win tonight in the European cup and despite not buying anyone so far, we might be able to add to our squad.  Watching the highlights of the Chelski game, I was interested to see how they did not press Hull in the second half as much as they did in the first.  This might have been as the game was already over, but, it could have been a sign that the way that Chelski play is not sustainable throughout 90 minutes.  If that is the case, we might have more of a chance than the doubters say we have.  But the kids will keep me busy and I doubt I will have much time to mope!
