Today Carole competed in 4 disciplines. As most of you have heard she was terrific. The Asymmetric bars was Caroles first apparatus. then she had beam followed by her floor routine and finally the Vault.
She did a beautiful job on the A bars but the beam started shakily and the floor routine was not her best. Then came the vault and Wow what a job.!!!
We had a couple of hours to wait, then came the award ceremony. Carole came away with three ribbons and two gold medals and an incredibly proud support team. Unfortunately her coach Sinead from Wexford could not be there for today but Marie, Rosarie and Phylis celebrated with Carole and to our delight Kathryn was assigned to the awards for Gymnastics and Gemma made it over with a wonderful entourage of Irish supporters. Hazel ( head coach), Dot and Roy cheered with her Irish team mates, Alan, John Michael, Laura, Pauline, Una and Barbara. Una and Barbara have yet to compete.
Carole was a delight to be around.... and loads of people here just love her.... and why not.
