bickster Posted February 9, 2014 Moderator Share Posted February 9, 2014 Still can't take a sport called curling seriouslyMy dog is good at curlingzactly and the image the phrase Curling Team conjures up is just wrong and hilarious at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 9, 2014 Moderator Share Posted February 9, 2014 I wonder if Jenny realises yet quite how famous she just became. Oh, and if you're reading, can we have a picture tomorrow of just how hungover an Olympic medallist looks the day after winning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted February 9, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2014 Just got an internet connection in the hotel, so late to the party. But just wanted to add my congratulations. Only saw the result on the news, but was jumping up and down with delight - the missus wanted to know why I was interested in snowboarding all of a sudden! P told hot is forever... :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCLaura Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 An Olympic Medal defintely calls for a return to add a congratulatory message. What an amazing achievement Jenny, well done. It was fantastic to watch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Nice to see you posting again AVFCLaura. Laura posting again and now Jenny an Olympic medalist. We are indeed blessed to have both on VT and a massive well done to Jenny for a superb achievement. Our own very special photo of Jen and the medal please when you're ready of course.

choffer Posted February 9, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2014 Just watched the recap on beeb2. Hope you sky plussed it Jones Really amazing though, can't remember being so proud watching a sporting event. Well done you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted February 9, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2014 Im late to the party too. Congratulations Jenny, and that Welsh coach of yours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I wonder if Jenny realises yet quite how famous she just became. Oh, and if you're reading, can we have a picture tomorrow of just how hungover an Olympic medallist looks the day after winning? I guess she hasn't been glued to the TV or radio. I'm surprised at how huge this has become, I think she has entered genuine sports stardom on the level of any high profile Olympic athlete.

Rodders Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 http://www.channel4.com/programmes/dispatches/4od watched the documentary, CED noted earlier in the thread. **** Russia, **** Sochi ( sorry Jenny! ) It's repellent viewing, but should be mandatory.

Ginko Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Sorry I'm late Jen but you were bloody brilliant, congrats! I bet Russell Crowe was watching and cursing about the one Olympic Bronze Medalist that got away. Edited February 9, 2014 by Ginko 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 First Brit to win an olympic medal on snow, thats pretty huge. Congrats Jenny I didn't know this. She's gone down in history. She probably couldn't have done it without us either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 It has the schedule for all sports here on the Sochi website which, assuming Jenny's just doing slopestyle, she will be on Thursday 6th Feb for the qualifiers and then OBVIOUSLY Sunday 9th for the Slopestyle finals. Are you doing any other snowboarding events, Jen? I'm pretty sure you won the medal because of this, you're welcome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrees Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Is that Paul Faulkner in the left foreground? Seriously though, well done Jenny-your nation is proud of you. Do you think that, had we signed Kiyotake, that miserable Japanese judge would have given you a better mark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Would be awesome if we all had Jen as our avatars for a few days? No, that would be a bit creepy. Someone who posts on VT, has just become an Olympic medalist and you think celebrating that with a photo of her is creepy?
