I think that he took part in 'strictly' a few years back B4 a period of depression.   :-\

DH is watching archery scores on the laptop: apparently the competitions will be broadcast on the radio later  ;D

The cross country event is stunning - part of Versailles gardens :-)))).  In glorious ☀️ .  How soon will a horse adjust to a drone following them or fountains in line of sight ?  A lot of planning and ground work has gone into this Course.

Not necessarily.   le Tour cyclists were 'down' with it but not everyone in each Team.  Tom Pidcock withdrew, G continued racing with a +ive test - it depends on how ill people feel.  Some people get the virus without symptoms  ::) [unlike DH with his shingles  :whist: ]
