Thanks again Thiele...they're now flitting between the basketball and the athletics :roll:

Great watching the blind girls in the 100m heats running with their male guide runners...fantastic example of teamwork.

Will Pistorius be the Paralymic answer to Usain Bolt??? He's even havng to run in the wrong class cos he's the only person there that's lost both legs.
