Brilliant medal for Tom!

I'm going to miss this all too. Have ordered Greg Louganis' autobiography, and am going to take the boys swimming (not quite diving yet) when DH is back home.

DH and I bawling at the montage

Oh, me too!

I love those montage bits too - and loved the diving, and also the beautiful rhythmic gymnastics this afternoon Well done Tom ! Awesome Mo !!
Great last night !

I was there........

Mo was incredible

(the Jamaican sprint relay team weren't bad either )

I thought Mo looked very jumpy and not quite concentrating at the medal ceremony. I reckon his wife looked more uncomfortable than pissed off. My husband and I both wondered whether she was in early labour and he was thinking "I've got to get off this bloody podium and get her to the hospital"...

Yes, I think we may have some more good news tomorrow

Mumsnet Mobot

Just watched the diving final on iPlayer - Tom was so pleased with his bronze! He might have got a better medal if he'd had a higher rating on his final dive, but not necessarily - and he so deserved to have one!

And Yaaayy for Mo's gold double! Fantastic achievement. So happy for him.
And the boxer Luke Campbell! Excellent gold there too (although I didn't watch that, not over keen on boxing)

"Mobot"

Loving your work Chas!

The woman on early morning breakfast Olympic coverage said "There are mobots everywhere !" - wondered if she'd seen yours chaz

If its good enough for these two than its good enough for Mumsnet

LOVE the Mobot. I feel sure it will have been seen on dancefloors across the land last night.

Laughed A LOT just after the diving when Claire Balding declared there was a 'silver vagina', though she actually said 'silver for China', of course.

I missed Mrs Farrah's grumpiness. Hope she's all right.

Women's Pentathlon today gives us a medal hope, I gather?

I thought I saw Tania Farah say something along the lines of "did you hear what he just said" although I could be making that all up.

Have totally enjoyed the games, went into the kitchen to get DD a pear and heard her cheering on the Mo replays "come on, come on...you can do it...yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy!" :)

Looking forward to seeing what the closing ceremony is going to be like and hope that the para's get as much hype and coverage as this has.
