Comments from you lot

Your comments keep rolling in. Which is nice.

DJIBOUTI LATEST
Someone's written in to say that the Djibouti tennis player who carried the Djbouti flag in the smallest team in the Opening Ceremony isn't in the women's tennis draw because she's a man. But she was clearly a woman. And all the reports I've found about the Cermony thought she was a woman too. Oddness.

ROBIN FANS
Sarah from Derby is worried that Robin won't be allowed into our posh hotel. Don't worry, we've just got here and we smuggled him in in a bag. As for his Greek language skills - Robin went to Harvard and speaks seven different languages fluently (it would be eight, but his Swahili is a bit rusty). KJ, meanwhile, has written to say she liked Robin's diving skills and suggests he finds a parakeet to do synchronised diving with. Good plan KJ, we'll put an ad in the paper for a willing bird.

39SCR IMPRESSED WITH ATHENS 2004 BLOG
39SCR is my grandpa. For some reason all my family have started leaving comments with pseudonyms. Such modesty.

ST GEORGE'S FLAGS OK
Apparently there were loads at the GB hockey game yesterday, so we'll be okay. We walked past the big hockey arena while Pakistan were playing Germany - those Pakistan fans are LOUD! Can't wait for GBR v Pakistan, which we're off to next week.

PAUL DESERVES POSTCARD
Teddy Bear has written in to say that Paul - the original entrant of my guess-the-events competition -deserves a postcard from Athens for getting the whole thing going. Too true. Email me your details Paul and I'll get it in the post.

Keep the comments coming. And don't forget to say where you're from.
