1 guess the best place Tve ever been is Marrakech n's such an interesting and eXC1ting city 1 ñrst went there rnany years ago, maybe ten twelve years, 1 can't remember exacUy 1 was living and wOlking in

Casablanca which is, oh, 1 don't know, about fo ur or five hours from Marr<lkech We had a long weekend t1nd Dave and 1 - he was my best friend at the time

- were Looking for something to do There was a guy

we worked wlth MaLik and he invited U5 to come and stay WÍth his famiLy

So we all left Casablanca on a Thursday evening after work and we got to Marrakech that nighl Malik's fam1ly l¡ve in a fantastic hOllse very near to the mai n square with !:he market, Djemaa el Fna His mother cooked us dinner and then we all went to t he square

We sat on tile roof of a café, drinking mint tea, and watching the people in t h~ square below USo lt really is

such an incredible place, There are people bUylllg and

selling absolutely everything There are lots of little kitchens serving soup il nd kebabs and other things

to eat You can listen ta story-tellers (if you speak Al<1bic, that ;s) watch snake charmers, acrouats, and

so on On th e Saturday 1 even saw a group of men on camels! Thei r facas were blue - blue! - and they had

come from the desert in the south of the country There's so rnuch to see and do The KoutoublC1 Masque

is spectacular and all the tourists go there The views

are fabulous, with the Atlas Mountains in the dlstance,

and lhere are some beautifuL parks like the garden that belonged te Yves St Laurer1t And the town has

great restaurants In fact everylhing about ít is great

But it's lhe square, the Ojemaa el Fna, and the shopping streets around lt that make Marrakech really speciaL Every time I 90 back to Marrakech, and lve probi:lbly beefl there ten or twelve times rgo straig ht

to the square and sit at my favourite café If 1 ever

have the money, I'd love to buy a house there Bu t ñght now, 1 do n't even have ajob and the last ti me 1 went was three years ago

There have been many great champions in the history of the Olympic Games For

example, the American swimmer, Mark Spitz, won seven gold medals in 1972, and

the Hungarian fencer Aladar Gerevich won gold medals at six different Olympic

games But there have also been some great losers We look at the best of the worst

Shizo Kanaguri

THE JAPANESE ATHLETE, Shizo

Kanagun, ran the marathon in

the 1912 Olympics in Stockholm

It was an extremely hol day and

KanagurI was fi nding the race

very hard As he was running

along the road, he saw a family

who were watching the race

They were having a picnic and

he decided to sit down and jo in

them After finishing the meal,

he realised that there was no

point in continuing with the

race

Eric Moussambani

Al THE SYDNEY Olympics in 2000, Eric Moussambani, from Equatorial

Guinea, became an international hero

The newspapers called him 'Eric the Eel'

when he set a new Olympic record in

the 100 metres freestyle Eric took up

swimming only a few months before

the games and it was his first time in a

50-metre swimming pool He completed the two lengths o the pool in 1 minute

5 72 seconds - a record slow time and

twice the time of the other swimmers

But Eric won the race because the two other swimmers were disqualified for

false starts
