Dressed in red, white and blue ...

Have I mentioned that our slimming and exercise class teacher, Cherie, is nuts? Last week she did the first of the Olympic themed classes, which includes kick boxing, archery, kung foo and swimming. The difference between the real Olympic swimming and us - apart from lack of water obviously - is that we have a shark in the pool. Oh and doggy paddle has become an Olympic event.

Kung foo requires a scream of attack and the victory lap needs flags, hence my outfit for this morning. I thought I'd be the only one with flags but I was underestimating the glorious insanity of the rest of the class: there were flags, pom poms and red, white and blue wrist cuffs galore.

But what this photo says to me most is: I really must go and buy myself a new exercise bra ...

P.S. Lest you think I've abandoned my Welshness for the sake of these games, my t-shirt reads, '100% Welsh. Need I say more?
