Signorina Lara is sooo good, no jumps

I hope your nose doesn't bother you anymore, @Ichatdelune! Thank you for your detailed reports, much appreciated.

 

[Ichatdelune]

G2, only Kovalevs on the ice

Kovalevs: what's that around her neck, 3S(<?)/3S, marked T, 5RLi?, Th3Lz?, Ichat was blinking on and off

 

[Ichatdelune]

I hope your nose doesn't bother you anymore, @Ichatdelune! Thank you for your detailed reports, much appreciated.

The nosebleed's stopped, now it's just my plain old rhinitis

 

[Ruthypegs]

Why didn't I bring more Tylenol now I'm out of them

sorry to hear this - I think the UK equivalent of Tylenol is paracetamol - you can buy these pretty much anywhere (supermarkets/convenience shops) very cheaply - about 30 pence a packet if you need to stock up

ID G5 on the ice, M. Mercier shaved merci beaucoup

Beautiful edges but zero chemistry from F-B/C

D/LM: FD, neat skating and solid lifts
F-B/C: FD, off on the first set of twizzles, rotational lift seemed bit labored, both are incredibly skilled but I do not feel the two to be a team
L/B: FD, Zhenya Lopareva is quite the warrior
JvR/S: disappeared off the ice???? I swear they were on the ice during warmup

F-B/C's combo curve lift is, well, not that impressive, beautiful edges sure but the second lift is too simple

yes, JvR/S disappeared off the ice - they were definitely there during the warmup

Oh I meant to the rink, I have a whole bottle of Tylenol in my luggage, thanks for the info though!

Nobody came for G3, no Miniki for me today

Nobody came for G3, no Miniki for me today

Well, sure half past eight is a bit late for many athletes.

Well, sure half past eight is a bit late for many athletes.

I assumed as much, I'm just sad that I don't get to see Minerva up close (My seat's on the second floor)

 

[Ichatdelune]

Ichat has chosen a proper dinner and a hot shower over waiting for skaters who probably went to their hotels already, see you folks tomorrow
