I quite like it - nice to bring the opening ceremony to the masses, instead of just 40,000 people lucky enough to get tickets.

I thought it was fantastic - equal parts bonkers and brilliant. Kudos to them for doing something different.  Paris looked beautiful, even in the pissing rain.

Enjoying the Olympics, but one let down for me is all the empty seats. They have definitely overpriced the events. I found myself on a priority list after attending London 2012, I was tempted to do Paris but way too much for a family.


The tennis is really sad to see. Surely they could give tickets to local schools and community groups to fill the seats. Or even give them to the athletes’ families. Apparently a few have been victims of touting scams.

Carnage in the Women's Triathlon this morning with the wet cobbles causing a lot of cycling crashes.

Was selfishly hoping it would be postponed again as I'm manning the phones at work so I can't watch it.

Absolutely stunning finish from Alex Yee to take Triathlon Gold. That was really something.

 

Team GB up to 5th in the medal table.

 

 

 

 

It was utterly brilliant...................... and now another gold this time from the Women's Coxless 4 in rowing by 0.15 of a second!!

We don't do things easily do we!🤣 I thought they had left it a tiny bit late in the rowing. Just that slight bit of luck to get them on the surge forward. Unbelievable stuff. Up to 4th in the standings now and another gold today could potentially see us topping the table.
