Email problem

Dear readers

Please note that for some time, I do not know exactly how long, there have been technical problems with the email address attached to this blog, rewriterussiagym@btinternet.com.  I have tried, but cannot get BT to correct this problem.  In fact, as can be seen if you log onto the BT communities, this is a problem that does not officially exist for many of their internet users who have been confounded and confused and had their time wasted and their emails go missing for far too long.

If you have sent an email to the RRG email address I would ask if you could kindly resend it to elizabethbooth136@btinternet.com, and I will try to deal with it as soon as possible, with apologies for any inconvenience.

Please bear with me and the need for this frustrating message.  Perhaps we should all just revert to sending each other letters! 

Elizabeth

Svetlana Boginskaya: I was always a bitch* in gymnastics, so now I ask for forgiveness from everyone who came in contact with me. The National Olympic Committee of Belarus held a press conference with three-time Olympic Champion in artistic gymnastics, Svetlana Boginskaya. The meeting was devoted to the 25th anniversary of the Olympic Games in Seoul. In South Korea the Belarussian won two gold medals in the team competition and vault. As a gift to the Olympic Hall of fame, the famous gymnast, now living in the United States, donated one of her trophies that she won at the 1990 European Championships and a pennant for Best Female Athlete of the USSR in 1989. How happy we were when we could share with such stars as Boginskaya, Scherbo, and Ivankov,...

Our Nelli Kim : a new documentary

Nelli Kim at the 1980 Olympics, courtesy of Nellikim.net I have mixed feelings about Nelli Kim.  She was certainly one of the most talented competitors the Soviet Union fielded in gymnastics, and that is saying something. She harvested first place  all around at the 1979 World Championships, her country's only gold medal in a somewhat disastrous competition for the Soviet women.  (That competition has become a very notorious one in history, if one remembers poor Nadia Comaneci's brave performance despite a serious wrist infection, and the winning Romanian team's sickeningly unhealthy appearance in Fort Worth.) Nelli was also a great performer and character.  Her career overlapped a time of fundamental change in the sport - when the lyricism of such performers as Tourischeva was overpowered by the pyrotechnical advances of the likes of Comaneci.  Nelli managed to reconcile the two qualities, and to span the gap between the two eras.  I don't think she ever r...
