Local Olympian Arrives In Rio

Newsflash, newsflash… Local would-be gold-medalist Bethany Folkestone has arrived in Rio for the 2016 Olympics Games after a gruelling 96 hour journey. In a text an exhausted Bethany said she’s desperate for the loo and could do with having something to eat and drink. Hopefully in a Nandos. In a second text she mentioned her luggage had been lost, so she may have to compete barefoot in her vest and pants. We wish Bethany well in Brazil and hope her gym kit arrives very soon.
