I'm sure it's us:) Those don't worry me, and I suspect I know which are yours, but some people have been hurt by them, which is horrible when we're just here for fun, or I am anyway.

i have been watching them, it is just a tennis match, it's fine :) BUT who put one particular one up? doesn't bother me, i laughed, ha

@beginnersblood Favourite quote. Everyone needs to be kinder to each other. Life is too short.

[MENTION=27738]tee[/MENTION]_smyth it baffles me that people consciously choose NOT to be nice to someone, let alone a total stranger. I just don't understand.


**** is the C word..twitter doesn't censor it

Well said Tahlia.
 
Oops just realized it is a replay - feel like a fool. Tora bright snowboarding from a week ago. Thought it was a new event.

The out pouring of grief but more importantly love and beautiful memories is overwhelming to read. @MsCharlotteD you were loved so much.
 
Ha! Glad to see you've been keeping up :)

Yes - have been away at a conference all week do have lost track of where things are at and haven't been catching up on Olympic news. I saw Tora's original final so I worked it out pretty quickly it was a replay.
 
Someone replied to Rohan's tweet with this article writing by one of Charlotte Dawson's friend -

There's a lot I like about the piece, but what bugs me a bit about this sort of grief criticism, or Rohan's tweets, is that we can't really know how sad someone is, or why or how deeply they sympathise, and shouldn't that kind of be the takeaway when this kind of thing happens? That we don't know another person's true fragility, so we should just try our best to be kind?

We definitely should all try to be mindful of others and be kind - the old saying of treating others as you would like to be treated. But I like the reminder that Charlottle (or anyone who passes away, whatever the cause) was a real person, with all manner of wonderful things (as well as less than wonderful) and the celebration of the whole picture of who the person was shouldn't be lost by trying to rationalise their passing to try to alleviate or ease the confusion of feelings of those left behind.

Very true. And more than fair as it came from a friend. It's more the Rohan-type stuff that I find kind of misses the point.

I had a fantastic time at 'Game Over' today, meeting people and staff, all who were extremely lovely to me. What an amazing venue for kids, and adults! If only I did more go karting as a kid, I could have been a Formula 1 driver! ; ) #seafm #gameovergc
