...and in last place.

My son wanted to keep him!

A kind of homage to the 2008 Beijing Olympics... Me and the kids had great fun looking for snails first... They say never work with children and gastropoda - well the kids were fine but the snails wouldn't sit still for a moment!!!

When the last competitor crosses the line of the last race it will all be over for another 4 years.
See you all in London 2012.

No 1 most interesting shot!!
