    Just wait until Rwanda get the Olympics and start spending our flights money...




    Is this post allowed now the clowns have vacated the circus?


    Possibly not.

    I get it now... the real performers are actually stuck in train stations across France... has Charles Asnomore been drafted in as a late replacement..

    The poor bugger with the torch is lost.... might help if he took his mask off then he could see where he was going..

    And the pyrotechnics are better at the MKM...

    Got off to a dodgy start but got better as it went on, imo. In the end I reckon they just about pulled if off. The rendition of 'Imagine' was quite special.

    OMG....Aussie diver misses the springboard and lets in the British girls for the first medal in Ladies pairs diving for 64 years. A bit like a Panenka gone horribly wrong.

    It's bronze for Scarlett Mew Jensen and Yasmin Harper! The pair secure Team GB's first medal of the Games.


    The moment you realise that it's real.

    You've won an Olympic medal.

    The first medal for Britain in your event for 64 years.

    Proper Olympics.

    Josh Tarling in the TT Cycling missed the podium by 2 seconds after having a puncture... Puncture will have cost him a silver medal...

    Chapeau!!

    Bit embarrassing that.

    Usually when we send archers to France we fire half a million arrows with a fair degree of accuracy and get the job done.

    Should have insisted that we hang on and held it on St Crispen’s Day.
