Адам до появления Евы. Ну что, неплохо!!!

Где Еву доставать будем?

ну да. В контакте, как он когда-то назывался...

Характер контакта таков, что приходится себя от нежелательных элементов сохранять.

Есть и не одна. Рекомендую эту.

Ну... не скажи, я уверена, что ему еще есть чем удивлять.....

I think the post-Sochi show tour was very traumatic for her - she was clearly exhausted that season, so she hated it. I wonder if she could find it i her to enjoy shows now, but probably not. She's a competitor, not a show girl... though she can be fantastic in a show, as last September showed us.

Honestly, I'll be very surprised (and delighted) if Yulia comes back. We've had no real news of her for six months now - and that doesn't bode well.

Hydrangeas make me nostalgic and sad...

There, you can watch the men's free program at Worlds 2017 if you like. The forum's down, they say. http://news.sportbox.ru/Vidy_sporta/Figurnoe_katanie/spbvideo_NI729939_translation_Chempionat_mira_Muzhchiny_Proizvolnaja_programma

Too early to panic, I'd say. Sportbox.ru belongs to Match TV, so I'm sure they'll sort it out in the end. I'm at work, the internet's iffy, can't check how well it's working now...

She's got to be doing them still, but she's sure to have her own schedule. They're in full swing now, I think.

And I thought I was ever so careful about conceaing my true identity... My secret's out!

It's totally OK, I'm not offended or anything! The translation is also in the planet, btw. Here!

Nice to know I can be a Mr... And I'm a member of 'Italian Forum'?

That's a great alternative title! LOL I'll go to bed and hope to get back with something more intelligent to say than my rather incoherent feelings which make me rather teary and smiley at the same time. I think even Brian wasn't so delusional - he was hoping to get more of Yuzu's ear once that great barrier was taken, I think.

We can give hints if no one is successful...

I might be mistaken, I might read my own ideas and feelings into it, but I think Brian got pretty emotional himself when he was recounting this episode. I think last season was an emotional rollercoaster for both of them...

well, I couldn't help that sort of cheating anyway!

It's precious having Brian's take on it - of course, Brian would have been concerned about such a strategy, not just because it was against the grain of what he believed in, but it also potentially could lead on to further injuries, but I'm happy he realised how important it was for Yuzu to achieve a clean 4Lo in a competition. I just remember Tracy commentating at SC and saying she wished to see more beautiful skating of Yuzu and fewer quads... but Yuzu is Yuzu, so jumps are part of the performance, they have to work too. Which makes me think this is why H&L is a hard program to take in unless the jumps are perfect - Yuzu aims at being nearly ethereal there, like the rustle of leaves in the wind. The magic gets broken if he fluffs something. But god, did it work in that perfect skate... - which I watch daily a few times.

I find it hard ot put into words right now - I feel emotional. I just imagine the frustration Yuzu must have been feeling at not being able to jump quads due to his injury - all the while he knew others were training hard, he must have been afraid of being left behind.

@gladi you're a hero - how do you manage to translate so much? Thank you!

She definitely beats Yuzu to the title of the unchangeable one, then!

Oh, I got Alex and Maya too!
