...memories of those grade school glue highs, I popped in, hoping for a much-needed week two lift, and maybe some bonding moments with a few fellow sniffers, and saw a long table, a dozen or so chairs and one very happy volunteer.

So I'd give the last three places anti-medals, all made of a decreasing quality of chocolate, starting with Russell Stover and working down from there. Then we would use the European soccer system, in which we'd kick out the country with the most anti-points. Not just out of the Olympics, but out of the international community.

...intimate dining experience in an old colonial Queenslander house. Next, go to the South Bank for a stroll along the boardwalk, where you have a great view of the city. Stop and have a drink at the Greystone Bar, tel: (61-7) 3846 6990. If I was going to kick on, I'd put on my flat shoes and head for Uber in West...

Swimming in the Tracer I noticed the compression in my legs was greater than with any other suit I've worn. It made me feel explosive and helped me kick effectively. The suit felt light, like I was swimming in saltwater, and although it wasn't the most comfortable thing in the world - it took 20 minutes to get into - it was fast...
