Strangely enough, we were watching the trap shooting the other night and MrsC said I ought to get back into shooting as it could be my ticket to Japan!

Sweetie Aug 2016 8:09pm, 10 Aug 2016 23 posts	0 Sweetie I get a German shooter, an Egyptian shooter and a Chinese archer - I think basically it is telling me I should try sports which don't involve actually moving - where my short legs are a distinct disadvantage!

Surrey Phil Aug 2016 11:37pm, 10 Aug 2016 1,558 posts	0 Surrey Phil I got a Spanish triathlete, a Spanish horse rider and a Colombian athlete. None of whom I have heard of. I am the same age as ten athletes and share a birthday with sixteen. Just for fun, I did the same search but for female Olympians and got a Ukranian athlete and table tennis player, plus a Swiss beach volleyball player. Interesting!
