We went to my Nephew Jack's sports day today at the school I attended 30 years ago. Because they want to shield the children from the real world, to make it as painful as possible to grow up, they are not allowed to 'win' races any more. They have some sort of complicated team system which I find baffling.
Anyway, Jack might not have *won* his race, but he was the first kid to reach the end. So he was the winner in my book.
