The United Thread?

You've made me laugh twice in the past three minutes of reading. You are on form today young sir. :-)

Fred Siriex daughter is in the diving, 10m.
Representing GB.

Yes and Fred did well getting himself a job with the BBC so he could be there. Fair play to him. :-)

Hockey looks like it's murder for your lower back

Don't know what I'm watching but we're taking the gold in this. Champagne hockey lads, just battered Spain 4 nil. Gibraltar is British again.

I bet those in the cycling time trial didn’t expect rain when they trained. One of the turns seems to have no grip and caught a few out already.

Fred is doing Co commentary at Wimbledon next year with John McEnroe.

You cannot be Siriex!

Nice to see the athletes congratulating each other no agendas, why can’t our politicians be like that, youth showing the way.

No egos.

Looking good for a medal in the women's cycling time trial.

Anna Henderson winning at the 2nd time check but Grace Brown behind her is flying, just passes her 2nd time check mark by 50 seconds.

Touch wood there is no fall and it's another medal here.

The wet cobbles on corners are horrendous.
