    Punctured tyres and now infected competitors. This is starting to smell like sabotage by the French. Headlines in tomorrow's Daily Express "Frenchies sabotage our medal hopes as punishment for Brexit".

    Booing at the Olympics is unacceptable.

    Wasn’t Brexit the punishment for Brexit?

    I have just discovered that trap shooting isn’t the thrilling spectator sport I thought it might be.

    I was hoping for something more exciting than compressed biodegradable luminous dust.

    Don't talk like that about Joanna Lumley! She is a national treasure!

    The hockey was exciting earlier...GB with two goals in the last 5 minutes to scrape a draw against Holland.

    Don’t get why they decided the triathlon should be in the Seine. Yes, I know the storms have caused a problem (and there is another thunderstorm on way) but they must have known this was likely. No one will convince me that the Seine is usually drinkable.

    Unbelievable result in the women’s rugby 7’s as Canada beat Australia to go through to the final against the All Blacks.
