Glad to be back...

Congratulations to the Reading Rockets, for winning yesterday at the National Finals against Leeds in Manchester. Well done to Matt Johnson, assistant director of coaching, who joined us on this morning's programme.
Thanks too to Sarah Winckless, former Olympic rowing champ, who's now doing great things with the 2012 athletes. I asked her if it was true that, with each Olympics, a new sport is added to the whole scenario. Apparently it is, but only as a "demonstration sport". With London 2012, it will probably be one of three likely sports - netball, squash or darts. They haven't yet announced which. Please don't let London 2012 be the Darts Olympics. That would just about set the image of austerity Britain, wouldn't it? AAAaaaagh!
