International Curling
A little known fact to everyone here.
I am a bit of an enthusiast in the sport of Curling.

Ever since Rhona Martin and her rink won Olympic gold for GB in 2002 I have been hooked.

Anyway Scotland have reached The European Championship final in both the mens and womens events this weekend.

Sweden will be the opponents in both finals.

The Scotland womens four will be skipped by Eve Muirhead.
The mens four by Bruce Mouat.

Coverage will be on BBC online and on Eurosport.

As Financial Domination continues to grow, less enthusiasm is required when putting on a show.

Scotland have beaten Sweden 7-4 to win the womens event. Congratulations to Eve Muirhead and her rink Smile.

And the men are also European champs after beating Swedens men 8-5.

A golden double.

RE: International Curling
Olympics was the only major championship left for her to win so it was not surprising that having achieved that she has decided to retire.

Will be interesting to see who will take over as the number one women's team in Scotland

Bruce Mouat's rink are now into the semi finals of the World Championships in Ottawa, Canada.

They finished second in the round robin phase behind Switzerland to guarantee a spot in the last four.

RE: International Curling
It will be a Scotland v Canada final in Ottawa. The Scots led by the superb Bruce Mouat edged out Italy in an extra end 9-8.

Host nation Canada are ominously peaking at the right time however and saw off Switzerland 7-5 to reach the gold medal match.
