      Paralympics Beijing 2008

      Anyone been watching this ?  Tell you what, kudos to those disabled athletes.  There's swimmers with no arms or legs swimming  better than you or me, there's javelin throwers with no lower part of their bodies, there's runners with no legs only blades, there's wheelchair basket ball and Cerebal Palsey football teams that could show the England able-bodied team a thing or two.  Fantastic effort by all those involved  !!
