British Olympic gold medal hopefuls
On Monday evening once I got to Heathrow’s infamous Terminal 5 & bid fond farewell to my luggage I popped outside for the condemned mans final smoko before having to go nicotine free for the thick end of 12 hours. When I got to the designated smoking area I was greeted but the sight of one of our Olympic hopefuls (resplendent in the gymnastics team kit)
Not only are the benefits of a rigorous training regime clear for all to see, but better still, this stout bulldog also had a smoko on the go
With this sort of preparation, Team GB is sure to be at the top of the medals table when the games finish

A true athelete always has a quick one before the run, some lads used to stop during a CFT for a smoke break!

#1 son was in a futsol tournament in D.C. that had been organized by the (ahem) security staff of the Russian Embassy. Between matches, the entire Russian team dashed outside to "pop smoke" and were soon virtually invisible beneath nicotine tinted clouds.
The markings on the Bulldog's luggage look like the "Broad Arrow" that was used in colonial America to mark Royal Ordnance, other military stores, and trees selected to be made into spars for RN vessels.
