Semi finals day for our mens and ladies curlers.
As we speak and just for [MENTION=11928]vegster[/MENTION], the ladies are putting the finishing touches to make up and styling their hair in preparation for their match to begin against the unbeaten Canadians at 10a.m
While our men face Sweden at 3p.m in their semi final

Quite a good game, but GB paid for a cack start. You can't be 3 down after two ends against the tournament favourites and expect to get away with it.

I have Canadian family so it's handy during the Winter Olympics
But when Canada is up against the Brits I will always chose G.B, so naturally I'm disappointed by the result.

Fantastic stuff, 1 little mistake in their last stone by Sweden and our boys take 2 points and go into the final 6-5.
