Oh, what was that? If there's racism from Argentina then I'm supporting France. Was Alvarez involved? I hope not.

Well in Bryony Page!

I'm currently watching the show jumping.
Its in a beautiful setting.
Paris have been very innovative.
The beach volleyball is set right beside the Eiffel Tower and the swimming is designed within a rugby pitch.

Forgot all about him, to be honest. 6 world championships, 4 Olympic golds, a Tour de France and multiple stage races. Easily ahead of Murray. That list of mine wasn't meant to be conclusive; they were the names that sprang to mind straight away.

I’d have Thomas in the list as well, got to have one for the Taffia

Where have I been!! I’m now definitely supporting France against Argentina.
Sorry folks. I must have been in a bubble to miss this. :-( :-)

Well in Bryony Page!

She was so good and her expression and then falling to to ground in joy/surprise was brilliant. :-)

Easy to miss it when "ssshh, you know who" wasn't involved.

Another gold in a sport I watch for 15/20 minutes every 4 years.

It's what the Olympics is all about!

Well, that was an unexpected ending, but gold for Bryony Page!

I’m what I’ve just drove to Anglesey and missed this morning

You know I thought that but read somewhere that said Otamendi for France!! I should trust myself not other people. Sorry. (I have had a stressful morning though with electrical problems and visions of having to fork out for a new fridge/freezer. It turned out ok but...) :-)

Is that the big freezer for people who criticise John?
