This story brings out my charitable side. I would like to assume the burden of storing these pieces free of charge to all parties involved. I would be willing to provide safe storage of these pieces indefinitely. If need be I would even cover the financial cost, of having the proper documentation drawn up, to tranfer ownership to me. In his advanced years the owner shouldn’t have to deal with the strain of fighting the government. My charitable act would also save the German tax payers money.
Men's Epee results…

Was hoping for a medal, but a friend’s brother still did well….

You like the Olympics? We have always followed them as a family. Italy not doing as well as expected. Fencing traditionally one of our better sports.
I used to play with the Searle brothers( gold medal winning rowers)as a child. My mother taught with their mother. -

They swept the women’s foil medals and took fourth in Men’s foil and silver in Men’s sabre. That’s just off the top of my head and there is lots of fencing left.
Italy is as of this edit leading the fencing medal count.

Our 3 women wiped the floor with the Foil and are on for Gold as a team. Think we were expecting to win Gold in the Men’s Sabre and the women disappointed in the �p�e.
Know we have had a couple of 4ths in other sports too.
Nothing in swimming after a Gold in Beijing (US too good).
And our Cycling has not brough any medals again.
Have hopes for the Volleyball(women), not Waterpolo this time.
Very happy for our Silver in the Skulls.
You like watching too? -
Like the olympics, but more of a winter man myself….love watching the Hockey, curling, Skiiing, snowboarding and almost everything else except men’s figure skating (shocker!)…had a classmate in the 2000 olympics for Diving…that’s about as far any olympic relationships I can muster…I just haven’t watched much this year, because I’m currently in San Diego and get all the news prior to it being on TV, so why watch? I understand why NBC is doing what its doing, but I have other things to do (like prep for my fantasy football drafts! :-D )

I am not a Winter man.
I lived in Surrey ( county south west of London) until I was 19, so I recognise the roads and buildings where the London ones are. Adds something to it for me.
Spent most of the Summer Holidays at the seaside in Italy and seems like the Olympics were always on! -
where in Italy? I spent 2 years in Sardinia…LOVED IT! vino! They had a place like a gas station, but instead of gas, it was wine, so you just brought your jug and filled it with the pump…GOD DAMN GENIOUS! 8-)

I was born in Florence to an English mother. She brought me here before I was one. Dad has three brothers, so I have eight Florentine cousins. I go back once a year now, but mum and dad have a second home in the city. Will retire there. Work here.

miss Europe….so sad when I had to leave…well, at least I have Japan to look forward to for the next 3 years.

Looks like the North Koreans are getting it right!

Makes any Cardassian proud!

Man, I’d hate to be a North Korean archer. The South Koreans typically crush that sport.
-
Men’s team too (foil).
Cannot win on the track, but can shoot with rifle or bow or stab any one who comes close.
Proud to keep the enemy at bay.
