Xpat Opinion: The Right & The Left On Hungarian Achievements In London
- 13 Aug 2012 9:00 AM
- sport
I managed to avoid commenting on the Olympics for two solid weeks, but perhaps I ought to say something about the games in general, the Hungarians’ performance in particular, and the political sparring between left and right over the Olympics and its significance. A couple of decades ago I was an avid follower of Olympic events but eventually I became disillusioned. I wasn’t sure any longer about ...
Guest Blog By British Chargé d’affaires Theresa Bubbear: Sziget – Day 3
- 10 Aug 2012 12:00 PM
- entertainment
Today I spent my third and final day at the Sziget Festival for this year. It was, unsurprisingly, a day of threes – third speech in Hungarian, policemen from three countries, three unexpected faces on Hungarian banknotes, and a meeting with three organisations. And Team GB remains third in the Olympic medals table. I am now passing the baton to three of the younger generation for the weekend.

Xpat Report: 2012 Summer Olympics
- 25 Jul 2012 9:00 AM
- sport
With the Summer Olympics in London almost upon us, I have been trying to remember anything from past events. I would like to think that the first Olympics I remember was 1972 when swimmer Mark Spitz won 7 gold medals. However, I am probably confabulating this since I was about 5 years old and do not remember anything about the tragedy in Munich. Olga Korbut, who my dad had a massive crush on, ...
