the calm before the storm

Sophie Kamlish waiting for the start of her race, which would ignite the stadium.

As luck would have it the tickets that mum got for Paralympics Athletics, without knowing what the classifications meant, allowed us to see 'Hurricane Hannah' Cockcroft, the Weirwolf and Jonnie Peacock all storm through their respective finals to win Gold for GB.

In the end we witnessed two bronzes, a silver and three renditions of God Save the Queen. Super Saturday? More like Thunderous Thursday! (And if you'd been in that stadium you'd agree that the noise was awe-inspiring.)
