    Lamballana, is tennis my only cause for concern if travelling in your area by car next week? I foolishly booked appointments in that area for Thursday and forgot the potential road issues.

    Morning FLT. If you are talking SW London then once the road races are finished today and tomorrow then yes it's just the Tennis. TBH that should be fine. Traffic is a bit worse normally during Wimbledon fortnight but not impossible. Central London will though be a problem particualrly around Whitehall and the Royal Parks.

    Looking forward to it. Chance to go top of the medal table! Not so sure we will "do a Saints" and stay there until the end...

    Let's hope so. We should certainly finish in the top 4 at the end not sure we can do any better than that. Some-where between 50 and 60 medals.

    All I'm interested in watching now is the Woman's Javelin because of Paraguay's Leryn Franco.

    Look, she irons... in a proper Saints shirt (sort of) !!!!!!!

    HEAVENLY

    Unlike the Blue Few, she will start with at least one point.

    Yep, didn't think Cav would win tbh. It was just too good to be true. Anyways, ditching the tennis for some women's beach volleyball <ok>

    Under so much pressure. Had to score 10, otherwise the USA won the gold. He held his nerve like a beauty and hit that 10 zone with consummate ease. Love it.

    Just watched some handball, GB v Montenegro. No idea what was going on. The fencing was pretty dramatic and brightly coloured. On to France v DPR Korea women's footy now.
