Just had a few days in Glasgow to watch the gymnastics. In some ways it was quite a difficult city to figure out.
My hotel wasn't really where its map showed it to be so I was neither in the city centre or near the gym arena. It was easy enough to get to both in the end though.
Some great gym was on, Ponor on beam was amazing as was Baby Cheng Fei on floor - she was totally robbed.
It was interesting watchig the different gymnasts prepare for the meet, some very social, especially those that speak many languages, some keeping to themselves.
Most the coaches were quite social too. Climbing through the stands to greet one another. Congratulating and gossiping.
Watched the TV coverage when I got back and I was shown loads:)
