Go Team GB!
« on: 03 August 2012, 13:29:50 »
After many posts on the "crap" Opening Ceremony, the cost, the politics, if you forget about all that for a second. Actually think about the everyday people taking part, we are currently 4th in the Medal Table, with 18 in total!

6 Gold, 6 Silver, 6 Bronze.

We have a good chance of going ahead of Korea too if this Gold rush continues....

What a fantastic achievement all around!  :y :y :y :y

Yep! Lot of hard work by lots of dedicated peeps and usually done on a 'shoestring' with some significant financial and personal input from family & supporters so that individuals can achieve their Olympic 'dream' & the Nation bask in the reflected Glory! :y

Got to admit, starting to get right into this olympic business  :y

Drooled over   cheered on Jess Eniss this morning like a big kid  :-[ :-[
Even the dog looked at me and run in his cage  ;D ;D

Had a lump in my throat when the 2 british lasses won the gold in the sculling and the bloke who got the bronze in the 1 man sculls got some serious respect in the gonads household  :y
I don't think I have ever seen a competitor so knackerd after a race  :y

One thing I will say tho, I wish they would cut out this Team GB crap .................. Just call us GREAT BRITAIN  :y :y

Great showing from Great Britain. Well done the athletes.

Only found out today that as well as the medal you get prize money of about £16k for gold, 10k for silver and £6k for bronze. The yanks tax their athletes winnings.

And in classic tradition 'we' (I know it's a GB team) we can't take penalty kicks ...........
