My obsession with anything Olympiad began with the 1992 Barcelona games. This is my earliest memory of sitting down in front of the tv to watch the Opening ceremony and memorising the theme song ‘amigos para siempre’ by sarah brightman and jose carreras. And discovering tha Spain existed.
I didn’t discover handball until perhaps 20 years later. and that winter Olympics existed prior to 2002.
though I didn’t make it to Sydney 2000, and by all accounts it was the most successful of all, I vow to get to one. Perhaps not the Brazil in 2016 though.. we’ll see how they handle the world cup this year before we make any rash decisions.
