To be read as a direct continuation of Part 14; https://watchitdie.blogspot.com/2021/12/the-2020-olympic-opening-ceremony-pt-14.html
Olympic Torch Relay.
A short video was played. Showing the highlights of the Olympic Torch Relay.
This is a piece of International Olympic Committee (IOC) protocol. Which really highlights the IOC's enthusiasm for Nazi and Fascist values.
The Torch Relay was invented by the German Nazi Party. Specifically by its Ministry of Propaganda ahead of the 1936 Summer Games. Held in Berlin, Germany.
Like so many other aspects of Nazism. The IOC decided they liked it so much they were going to keep it.
As I think we all know. The Olympic Flame is lit, by the Sun, in the Ancient Greek city of Olympia. It is then transported, inside a lamp, to the Olympic host country.
The Flame is then transferred to a succession of Olympic Torches. Which are then paraded around the host country by a relay of people.
The purpose is to attract crowds and attention. In an effort to build excitement and momentum ahead of the games.
This year the Pandemic has meant that everybody, including Japan. Have been trying to avoid having large crowds of people gathering.
However IOC protocol dictated that Japan had to go ahead with the Torch Relay anyway.
Creating this rather strange situation of them trying to do a publicity stunt. In secret.
So the video of the Torch Relay highlights was nothing special. Due to the Torch Relay being nothing special.
Just a succession of people carrying a flaming torch alone. In a wide, open space.
That should not be taken as a slight against the hosts. I think we all understand. There were some issues they had to deal with.
The video though does give us an opportunity to discuss The Design of the Olympic Torch.
This was intended to resemble the shape of a Cherry Blossom. Japan's national flower. Which holds great importance within Japanese society.
As was discussed during the sequence with the Japanese National Anthem (Fun With Flags I).
There is the popular practice within Japan of Hanami (Flower Viewing). In which people gather together beneath the pretty and sweet smelling Cherry Blossoms.
Cherry Blossoms are also hugely symbolic with Japan's Asian, Animist beliefs.
Their beauty is fragile and shortlived. Encapsulating the concept of Mono No Aware (The Suffering Of Things). Similar to the concept of Memento Mori (Remember That You Must Die).
This is something Cherry Blossoms share with the Lotus flower. Frequently used in Buddhism as a metaphor for the journey towards enlightenment.
Key to which is the realisation. That age, sickness and death are the inevitable fate of all living things.
The torches themselves are made of aluminium.
Specifically aluminium recycled from temporary housing erected to house the 340,000+ people displaced by the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake Disaster. Some for many years.
Although it has offered many hints. The Opening Ceremony hasn't included a specific section to talk about the so-called "3/11 Disaster" directly. So I will use this opportunity to talk about it.
On March 11th 2011 (11/3/11) a Magnitude 9.1 Earthquake struck around 75km (45 miles) off Japan's Tokohu Region. It lasted for a full six minutes.
It was the most powerful Earthquake ever recorded it Japan. It was the fourth most powerful Earthquake ever recorded anywhere.
On any given day there are hundreds of Earthquakes recorded all over the World. We've been keeping detailed records of Earthquakes since 1900.
So take a moment to think about what that truly means. To say that something is the fourth most powerful Earthquake ever recorded.
The Earthquake immediately had a significant impact within Japan. Causing some US$34bn worth of damage to buildings and infrastructure such as roads and bridges.
That though was just the start.
The Earthquake triggered a Tsunami Wave. A 6 metre (20 foot) tall, fast-moving, wall of water. Which smashed into all of the eastern side of Japan. With the Prefectures of Fukushima, Iwate and Miyagi bearing the brunt.
This was the second biggest Tsunami ever recorded.
We have been recording Tsunamis for thousands of years.
So, again. Take a moment to think about what that truly means. To say something is the second biggest Tsunami ever recorded.
The damage that it caused to Japan is almost impossible to comprehend.
It injured more than 6,000 people. While it killed more than 20,000 people.
More than 2,500 of whose bodies were never recovered. They just disappeared into the sea.
Some 230,000 vehicles were destroyed. While some 120,000 buildings were totally destroyed. With a further 280,000 further buildings being partially destroyed. Leaving those 340,000+ severely traumatised people homeless.
You may have noticed that I end my posts by giving the time and date in my location.
That tradition began on March 3rd 2011. As we were all trying to track the Tsunami as it travelled across the Pacific Ocean, backwards across the International Date Line.
Fearful that we would see that level of destruction stretch down the west coast of the American Continent. From Alaska down to Chile.
The Tsunami also overwhelmed The Fukushima-Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Causing its vital cooling system to fail. Leading to three Reactor Meltdowns and several explosions.
Since 1990 Nuclear Incidents are measured using the; "International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale (INES)." Fukushima was a Level 7 event. The highest possible event.
The only other Level 7 event was the 1986 Chernobyl Disaster. Which, technically, only saw one Reactor Meltdown and two explosions.
However, unlike at Fukushima-Daiichi, that was an uncontained explosion. Which triggered a massive fire that emitted radiative smoke for several weeks.
All of that happend to Japan. In just 15 minutes.
In 2020 we saw the World almost completely shutdown. Including the delay to these Olympic Games.
All in response to a Coronavirus. Which normally wouldn't be considered even a third of the Common Cold.
So I think it is fair to say. That any one of the events of 3/11 would have completely broken most nations.
However life wasn't done with Japan yet.
Prior to 3/11 Japan generated around 30% of its electricity from Nuclear Power Plants. In response to 3/11 Japan was forced to shutdown 46 of its 50 Nuclear Power Plants.
Effectively cutting off 30% of their electricity at the flick of a switch. With nothing there to replace it.
This caused a decade long energy crisis.
With blackouts, rolling blackouts and brownouts affecting all of Japanese society. A society which is probably more dependent than most on technology and electrical gadgets.
All beause there simply was not enough electricity to supply demand. Not at any price. It just was not there.
So I think the Japanese people can be incredibly proud. Of how they managed to just keep going in response to 3/11.
Charting Japan's recovery from 3/11 was the stated aim of awarding them the 2020 Summer Olympics. Back in 2013.
So that is probably why there hasn't been a specific section dedicated to 3/11. This is supposed to be the symbolic end of the journey. The point where everybody can start to forget and move on.
Throughout this Opening Ceremony and 2020. There has been some discussion.
As the whether the Pandemic could be the natural environment's violent revenge. For the Paris Agreement on Climate Change going into effect at the start of 2020.
If you've been tracking the detail of global efforts to combat Climate Change. Then you can see a possible, similar connection with 3/11 and Fukushima-Daiichi in particular.
At "COP16." The 16th Conference Of Parties. To the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Held in Cancun, Mexico in December 2010.
There was a big argument over whether Nuclear Power could be classed as a; "Green Technology." For the purposes of the UNFCCC's Finance and Technology Transfer mechanisms.
It ended in a rough agreement that it shouldn't be.
When you consider all the inputs over the extremely long life of Nuclear Power generation. It can't even be considered Energy Neutral. Let alone Carbon Neutral.
That is even before you get into the safety issue.
It was though expected that the argument would continue. At the UNFCCC's spring meeting. To be held in March/April 2011.
Then 3/11 happened. Suddenly all the people who'd be pushing for Nuclear Power were like;
"Nope. We're good."
As all the people who were opposed to Nuclear being considered a Green Technology. Were trying to cope in the midst of 3/11 with the thought.
"Well. That's proved our point!"
Prior to the shame that is the Paris Agreement. The plan was for the Kyoto Protocol to be replaced with a much stronger, legally binding mechanism to combat Climate Change.
This led to a lot of discussion about what would constitute; "Force Majeure." The legal concept that allows for the breaking of a contract. In this case Green House Gas (ghg) emission reduction commitments.
3/11 and Japan's subsequent energy crisis, which ran throughout the negotiations. Gave us a massive example of what would constitute Force Majeure.
As Japan had to begin every meeting in the negotiations. By going through the humilation of;
"Yes. We know it's our name on it. But we really can't meet our obligations under the Kyoto Protocol anymore."
The music accompanying the video was "Teo Torriate (Let Us Cling Together)" by British Rock band Queen.
The song is about being parted from a loved one. Although it is never made clear whether that parting is due to distance or death.
The lyrics heavily invoke imagery used widely within Asian Animist religions.
The same Moon, the same Wind. Time being nothing but an illusion. Feeling the blossoming flower as if it was the touch of your loved one.
As has been discussed. Particularly in reference to the Ichimatso Moro (Harmonised Chequered) Tokyo 2020 emblem.
Through concepts such as Naraka. Asian Animist religions see death merely as another form of distance.
The chorus of the song is sung in Japanese. As is the title of the song; "Teo Torriate (Hand In Hand And)." Although that is a grammatically curious combination of "Hand (Teo, 4-4-3)" and the particle "Wo" (2-3-1).
As has been mentioned a few times during this Opening Ceremony. I have a tattoo in Japanese. Despite the appalling libel in The Offspring song; "Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)." I know exactly what it means.
Including the deliberate grammatical error.
I'm sure though this 1976 Queen song will have been a lot of people's only exposure to the Japanese language.
At around 18:30 on 16/12/21 (UK date) there is still so much to continue with.
Edited at around 20:10 on 16/12/21 (UK date) to quickly tidy the above and copy & paste;
If you were so inclined. I'm sure now we've mentioned it. You could use the Olympics and Para-Olympics to discuss all aspects of the band Queen.
Its music. Its members.
Such as the lead singer Freddie Mercury.
Who was born Farrokh Bulsara, in Tanzania. To Indian parents.
India being the Birthplace of Buddhism. Its current main religion being the similarly Asian Animist Hinduism.
Even if Freddie Mercury's own parents were followers Zoroastrianism. A religion that even I need to read up on.
The Yezidi religion is pre-Zoroastrian. In Syria and Iraq they've been fighting alongside Shia Muslims. Who are definitely post-Zoroastrian.
It was the one topic. That no-one was interested in talking about.
You could talk about Freddie Mercury's Homosexuality. Along with his Cross-Dressing in the video for; "I Want To Break Free."
I suppose you could even talk about Freddie Mercury's friendship with Britain's Princess Diana.
Due to my paternal Grandfather being part of Lord Mountbatten's security detail. As part of a long, sketchy military career.
Growing up I actually met Prince Charles, Princess Diana, Prince William, Prince Harry and the Duchess of Cornwall. Several times.
I mean, it's not like we went to school together. Although we are certainly talking about more than once.
As you may have guessed from me meeting Prince Charles & Princess Diana. Along with me meeting Prince Charles & the Duchess of Cornwall.
It must be said. That in person I found Princess Diana to be particularly unpleasant.
However if we must talk about Princess Diana. I suppose we could also talk about "Candle In The Wind." The 1976 song Elton John reworked for her 1997 funeral.
Perhaps we could talk about the certain, actionable musical similarities. Between Candle In The Wind and the earlier Teo Terriate.
As people who remember his 2005 Live 8 performance. Alongside Pete Doherty. Will know. Over the years Elton John has certainly had a lot to say about me.
That's despite him still not having achieved a level in life. Where he would be granted an audience with me.
I certainly wasn't in his Live 8 audience.
I suppose we could also talk about Freddie Mercury's death from HIV/AIDS.
We could certainly talk about my use of his version of; "The Great Pretender." To mock the Paris Agreement.
I think primarily though Japan was trying to remind us that Brian May holds a PhD in Astrophysics.
Putting him alongside various other
Astrophysicists mentioned in this Opening Ceremony. Such as Willebrord Snellius, Ernest Rutherford, Paul Villard, Carl Sagan etc.
Meaning it would be interesting to hear. Brian May's views on the similarities between Quantum Field Theory and Asian Animist religions.
Or, perhaps. That's what we've just heard.
Teo Terriate is taken from the Queen album; "A Day At The Races."
Not to be confused with the rather racist song; "Camptown Races." Which was used to draw extra attention to the Equestrian Pictograms. In the earlier "Pictogram Round" section of the ceremony.
A reminder of how the US/UK were adamant that Miley Cyrus and I couldn't speak directly to each other. As that would be a secret, which no-one else would be able to see.
While I was using it as an opportunity. To teach everybody about the Cavaletti method of horse training. Pioneered by Gold Medallist in Men's Dressage at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, Reiner Klimke.
The cover art for A Day At The Races features a massive, central "Q." The same icon used by the American "QAnon" movement.
Making this seem very much like. Japan actively endorsing and promoting QAnon. Particularly its central tenet;
There is No Such Person as President Joe Biden.
At around 20:35 on 16/12/21 (UK date) you notice it now, don't you.
Edited at around 17:50 on 20/12/21 (UK date) to tidy the above and copy & paste;
Olympic Cauldron Lighting.
As the video ended. The Olympic Torch Relay made its way into the arena. To allow the Olympic Cauldron to be lit.
Like the third generation of the Kamiyo-nanayo. The first Torch Bearers arrived in a pair. Tadahiro Nomura and Saori Yoshida.
Tadahiro Nomura is one of Japan's most famous Olympians. He won three back-to-back Gold Medals at the 1996, 2000 and 2004 Olympics. All in the traditionally male combat sport of Judo.
Saori Yoshida is another extremely famous Japanese Olympian. She also won back-to-back Gold Medals. At the 2004, 2008, 2012 Olympics. Along with a Silver Medal at the 2016 Olympics.
All in the traditionally male combat sport of wrestling.
Together they reference that recurring theme of both the ceremony and the games. Improving rights for women within Japanese society. Here by exploring traditional gender roles.
As if to further highlight the Third generation of the Kamiyo-nanayo. The Olympic Torch was then passed to a trio or Thrupple of Torch Bearers.
Shigeo Nagashima, Sadaharu Oh and Hideki "Godzilla" Matsui. Three massive Japanese Baseball stars.
Japan is probably the only country outside of America where Baseball is extremely popular. Having been introduced by American troops that have been stationed in Japan since the end of the Second World War.
Shigeo Nagashima spent his career with the Yomirui Giants. Where he won the Japanese equivalent of the World Series eleven times as a player. Then a further three times as manager. He was inducted into the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame in 1988.
Sadaharu Oh was a teammate of Shigeo Nagashima at the Yomirui Giants. Sharing in those eleven Japan Series victories. He was inducted into the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame in 1994.
Hideki Matsui began his career with the Yomiuri Giants. Winning the Japan Series three times.
Hideki Matsui then moved to America where he played for the Tampa Bay Rays, the Oakland Athletics and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Along with the very famous New York Yankees.
It was while in America that he picked up the nickname; "Godzilla." Which the Japanese probably find tacky, bordering on the offensive.
As anyone watching could see. Shigeo Nagashima and Sadaharu Oh are now both old men. Aged 85 and 81 respectively. Shigeo Nagashima appeared particularly frail. Having suffered a stroke in 2004.
Appearing alongside them. The 47 year old Hideki Matsui almost gave the impression of being their nurse or careworker.
This was a reference to another recurring theme of the ceremony and the games.
In 2006 Britain just completely withdrew from reality. Retreating into a fantasy world of these amazing things it was going to achieve.
Prominent amongst those fantasy achievements. Was for me to teach them, for free. How to become world leaders in meeting the healthcare needs of the elderly. With a particular focus on Dementia.
That is a hugely profitable and growing market with economically developed nations seeing increasingly older populations. Particularly in nations such as Japan which is said to have a; "Super-Aging Population."
To give you an idea. In Japan in a typical year around US$500m is spent on diapers for babies. While 2.5 times that, around US$1.4bn is spent on diapers for elderly adults.
Just in Japan. The total, annual market for such elderly care products is in excess of US$900bn.
To get a piece of that action. Britain systematically tortured and killed my paternal Grandmother. While forcing me to watch.
They even used my attempts to mount legal challenges against their behaviour. In an effort to disrupt and collapse global efforts to combat Climate Change.
Her husband, my paternal Grandfather. His long, sketchy military career. Including as part of the security detail for Lord Mountbatten, the current British Queen's de facto father-in-law.
Apparently, that all counted for nothing.
Yet here Shigeo Nagashima and Sadaharu Oh still stand. Frailly clinging on. In the hope that Britain's amazing achievement will finally emerge.
This was Japan, as a friend and ally of Britain. Trying to give them an opportunity. Pleading with them almost.
To look at what it thought it was going to achieve when it withdrew from reality back in 2006. Then compare it to what it has actually achieved.
As everyone seems obsessed with mathematical modelling at the moment. I suppose we could assign those lists numerical values. Then compare them on a T-cell balance sheet.
That total should then be compared to the costs that Britain has incurred. Since its decision to withdraw from reality.
If Britain has achieved none of the things it set out to achieve. Then a rational person would conclude that it has been a complete failure. A big, fat zero.
A rational person would then want to reverse that failure. If only to cut the expense it is costing.
Ironically. One of the other things Britain dreamed it was going to achieve. When it completely withdrew from reality. Was similar global leadership in Mental Healthcare. Their Cyrille Tchatchet boast.
One of the key tools, approved by the World Health Organisation (WHO), to diagnose Mental Illness. Is the Mental Status Examination (MSE).
Which is not to be confused with the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Used in the diagnosis of Dementia.
The Mental Status Examination considers a person across 10 areas or "Domains." The largest of which is; "Thought Content."
The most serious problem with Thought Content are; "Delusions."
Does the person have a provably false belief? That they refuse to let go of. Not matter much evidence is presented proving to them that their belief is false.
There is a particular sub-type of Delusion. Grandiose Delusions. Where the sufferer thinks that have exceptional, superior knowledge and power.
Such as a belief they have magical superpowers. Which allow them to perform elaborate Jedi mind-tricks to control all the inferior beings.
So I don't think it should really come as a surprise to anyone.
That as their failure and desperation has mounted. In recent years Britain, and increasingly this year America.
Seem to have become increasingly fixated and obsessed with the issue of Mental Health and Mental Illness.
Who is Sane? And who, very obviously, isn't.
The next Torch Bearers also came in a pair. Like the fourth generation of the Kamiyo-nanayo.
Although no-one seems to have caught their names. They were a male Doctor and a female Nurse.
Again exploring traditional gender roles. In contrast to the traditional gender role defying pairing of Tadahiro Nomura and Saori Yoshida.
The Torch was then passed to Wakako Tschuida. An incredibly famous Japanese Para-Olympian. Japan's first professional Para-Olympian in fact.
Wakako Tschuida is most famous as a Wheelchair Marathon Racer. However also competed in the Winter Para-Olympics as an Ice-Sledge Racer.
Her inclusion in the Torch Relay. Reaffirmed Japan's desire to see parity between the Olympics and Para-Olympics.
They are treating this not as the Opening Ceremony for just the Olympics. But for the Olympics and Para-Olympics. Once long, single event.
The next Torch Bearers were A Group of School Children. From the Prefectures of Fukushima, Iwate and Miyagi. The Prefectures worst affected by the 3/11 disaster.
Although they were not named, let alone their ages given. The children were said to have been born at the time of 3/11 or immediately after. Having lived their entire lives in the shadow of the disaster.
This raised the point that globally. Particularly in Israel and the US military. There is now an entire generation of adults. Who do not remember the 9/11 Attacks. They simply had not been born.
However it also invoked Japan's recovery from 3/11. The symbolic journey that preparations for these games were set out to chart.
At around 18:20 on 20/12/21 (UK date) there is still much to continue.
Edited at around 18:50 on 21/12/21 (UK date) to tidy the above and copy & paste;
Finally the Torch was passed to Naomi Osaka. The de facto US/Japan Dual National Tennis player. Who is probably the most famous Japanese sports person in the World at the moment.
As has been discussed a lot during this Opening Ceremony. Japan looks at its Edo Period as its golden age.
The Edo Period was defined by the; "Locked State" or; "Sakoku" policy.
This saw Japan completely isolate itself from the outside World. With foreigners not being allowed into the country and few Japanese being allowed to leave.
As a result. Japanese society still has this deeply ingrained distrust of foreigners.
This applies to all foreigners, including other Asians. However it is particularly striking for Black people.
In part that is because they look the most unlike Japanese people. Making them really stand out in a crowd, unable to sort of blend into the background.
But it is also due to Japan having a very polite, deferential and conformist culture. Which makes the manners obsessed British seem like oafs in comparison.
What tends to dominate globally is American Black culture. Which like Caribbean Black culture is influenced by boisterous West African culture. Which really could not be more different from Japanese culture.
Naomi Osaka is the personification of this clash. One that is happening in her brain all day, every day.
Her father is a Black man from the Caribbean island of Haiti. While her mother is a Japanese woman from Hokkaido.
Naomi Osaka was born in Osaka, Japan. Then, at the age of three, moved to America. Obtaining American citizenship.
At the age of 14, as her Tennis career was starting to take off. Naomi Osaka decided that she would represent Japan.
As her success grew this was met with something of a backlash within Japan. Along with some just out-and-out racist comments.
In part this was because she hadn't actually lived in Japan since the age of three. Also Japan doesn't allow Dual Citizenship past the age of 22. Meaning Naomi Osaka had to give up her US citizenship.
However a large part of it was a belief that a Black person simply can't be Japanese. Just as a White person simply can't be Japanese. No matter of where they were born, or where they've lived their lives.
Naomi Osaka has also had similar problems fitting in within American society.
This is due to the very narrow image of a Black person that American society, particularly Black American society allows. A recurring theme of really every Super Bowl and Oscars since about 2014.
The person I always pick on to illustrate this point is Lewis Hamilton. The Black British Formula 1 racing driver.
Lewis Hamilton has won the Formula 1 drivers title seven times. The joint most times anyone has ever won it.
This year he came close to breaking
the record. Which would have made him the most successful Formula 1 driver ever.
So in his professional life Lewis Hamilton is incredibly accomplished. He has been extremely well compensated financially for his achievements.
This has led to him trying to fit in in America. Joining in with similarly accomplished Black American sports stars and celebrities.
However he's never seemed quite comfortable. Black American society seems to have no place for an intelligent, accomplished, polite Black man.
Black American society it seems can only cope with Black men who dumb-as-rocks thugs and gangsters.
Naomi Osaka seems to have a similar problem. Black American society has no place for intelligent, accomplished polite Black women.
Black American society seems only able to cope with Black women. As dumb-as-rocks whores and strippers. There as sex objects for the entertainment of those dumb-as-rocks Black men.
During the 2020 US Open Naomi Osaka wore facemasks supporting the Black Lives Matter cause. Which did have the awkward feel of someone trying too hard to fit in with the cool kids.
I suppose to that list we could also add Rihanna. My eternal wife in the eyes of the Olympic and Para-Olympic movement.
You know that woman? The one who founded and runs a cosmetics company and a clothing company. With a combined value of US$1bn.
The woman who also founded and runs a charitable foundation. That in 2020 disbursed US$47m, some to good causes.
It turns out. She can be a bit of a nerd.
Worse than that. Rihanna seems to be at about my level of nerd.
Back in January 2020 Rihanna asked for my opinion on the India Farmer Protests.
Taking the rather circuitous route of Tweeting about it. In the hope of causing such a storm it would be picked up by a news agency I read.
Rather than writing the book that it would take to begin to explain it.
I'm not joking about that. When I've finished my coverage of this Opening Ceremony, including reference to the India Farmer Protests. It will run to around 400 A5 pages.
A perfectly reasonable length for a book.
So, rather than doing that. I took a book someone else had written on the subject. Then hurled it in Rihanna's general direction.
If the US/UK were ever to start participating in reality again.
Then I think both Rihanna and I would actually quite enjoy discussing that book together. While it was the best I could do at the time. There are certainly some problems with it.
Things like Microfinance are actually the sort of things Rihanna needs to know for her charitable foundation. It is her job.
Unfortunately we feel we have to keep that quiet. As Black America just can't cope with an intelligent, accomplished Black woman.
Perhaps something Rihanna was trying to protest about. When, in April 2021, she shutdown a Los Angeles bookstore. So the paparazzi could photograph her buying a copy of "Shoe Dog" by Phil Knight.
While wearing a hat that even Lewis Hamilton would probably think twice about.
A detail I feel I'm including here. Entirely for the benefit of Miley Cyrus.
Also, exactly like the Japanese city of Osaka. Naomi Osaka's family name does seem a lot like my Twitter handle; "Sovereignaka (Saka)."
The one I used before being blocked by the platform. In June 2019.
Just before the 2019 G20 Summit. Held in Osaka, Japan.
In case there was still lingering doubt. That Twitter will be apologising. They will pay their fines in full.
In the Celtic/Irish tradition. You often see an "O" followed by an apostrophe before a family name. As in; Brendan O'Carroll.
This is just a short way of writing; "Descendent of." As in; Brendan descendent of the Carrolls.
All of which does rather make it sound. As though Naomi O'Saka is my daughter.
Which certainly entertains me. Particularly when I'm trying to marry her off to Lewis Hamilton.
Just as I was married off to Rihanna O'Fenty.
At around 19:15 on 21/12/21 (UK date) there's just one final, uphill, bit left to do.
Edited at around 14:40 on 23/12/21 (UK date) to tidy the above and add;
To be continued in Part 16.
15:10 on 23/12/21 (UK date).
