Megan is absolutely correct in saying this. Although the girls did super well, their scores were significantly lower than the scores they got for similar routines within the US.

That would be because I am a professional

Next week, Tuesday and Wednesday is the annual Glasgow Grand Prix up in Scotland, part of the World Cup circuit. I'll be going as an acredited photographer so will be taking loads of photos. I am sooooo excited about seeing Shavahn Church compete for Great Britain for the first time! I will make sure I take loads of photos of her especially. I will be back Thursday and let you know how it was, who I met, if I got any gossip etc. I'm away Monday - Thursday.

Remember even if they're not very well known and don't get much mail, they're still training about 35 hours per week, probably get home late, have to do home work, early night etc. Don't worry I am sure you will get replies, but no matter how well known gymnasts are, they are all very busy young ladies.

Good lord, Brazil has moved ?! Fabulous, means I can get there very cheaply Anywhoo, my faves All time: Lisa Mason, Simona Amanar, Alexei Nemove, Nikolai Krukov, Dina Kochetkova Current: Beth Tweddle, Rhian Pugh, Aisling Williams, Shavahn Church, Laura Jones, Becky Downie, Abi Kirby, Anna Pavlova, Daria Elizarova, erm cant think lol

I don't Carly either. Never have, never will.

Yes but when it's competition season you have to focus on your routines, it's not really time to learn new skills.

Congrats Megan that's a great acheivement. We have girls working on theirs too and they're coming along nicely. Are you doing giants on a strap bar ?

Oh actually technically I could join in this thread today! I got a photo back from Beth Tweddle which I sent her for our gym club's notice board. We're a brand new club so I thought it would be nice. It says 'To City of XXXXXX, Best Wishes, Beth Tweddle' Soz don't want weirdos knowing where I am haha.
