Ochre,

I don't know about others who've posted on this topic, or general visitors to this forum, but I for one am offended by the image you posted! It is offensive to all sorts of people, but most of all to those athletes who, through (mostly) no fault of their own, have suffered terrible disabilities, and who through sheer force of will and strength of remaining limb/s, rise to the challenge of doing something so positive as choosing to compete on the world stage.

And, by posting this puerile image, you've just denigrated everything they've worked so hard to achieve.

I hope you see it my way and choose to remove it by your own choice, before the moderator does.

Isn't there another thread on DG&P about scraping the bottom of the barrel? If so, I suggest that you give thanks and praise to whomever it was that started a thread in honour of you!
