I think we should be so proud of our boys and girls, for their dedication and determination, medals or no medals. They deserve every bit of praise.
How boring it would be if we were all the same without drive to succeed.


Sinclair and Innes, second in the semi final.. happy


I can't agree with Excoriator either granny
Competition is a natural thing in humans and animals, survival of the fittest
Lets have a healthy competition, that is what sport is
The world is brought together through sport and the majority like at least one sporting discipline, or more

Quite enjoyed the rugby sevens.. only 7 minutes a half. fast and furious tactical and skilful and not too boring and drawn out like some of the sports.
Watched the brit in the trap shooting ---was expecting a rabbit to be running along the back wall. Couldn't see what the heck he was shooting at.

Cricket commentators were taking the mick about the easiest gold medal to get.. the cox in the rowing.

Agreed fish
The woman's competition was very exciting and one of the best sports I have watched so far

Hahahaha, I thought it might have been the ladys waterproof makeup products grin
It seems it was “a proliferation of algae.” “This was because of heat and a lack of wind,”
