[Nyala]

What a brilliant effort by our athletes - Well Done, Zimbabwe.
It brings a lump to my throat to see how well they've done when there is so much conflict they have to face at home.

You know, they are the lucky ones too, they got electricity, water, food, and transport in China, now what they have to look forward to is the reality that is Zimbabwe. How many pressing issues will be brought up at the farce that is the opening of Parliament in Zim. I hope they get what is comming to them in the way of rewards. Kirsty will be in Zim shortly and I hope that she has a lot to say to Bob the Knob on the ailing situation in Zimbabwe.

[zimajays]

I heard she has refused to go home as she is not recognising Bob as president? is this true?

[Peas]

[Cez]

[Chick]

[joemac]

Her Folks are still in Zim though.
