Sidi Fidi Gold

I thought you'd choose death by Mau Mau

15 year old British girl Mika Stojsavljevic won the US Open juniors, where's GY Johnny when we need a nationality test,

A few nice moments today I was messing about in the kitchen this morning, looked out of the window, there were quite a few sparrows in the hedge at the bottom of the garden, amongst them was a bird flitting about, I could tell by the way it was moving that it was something different, on closer inspection I could see that it was a Chiffchaff, we tend to get them in most years but only once or twice per year. About 20 minutes later, I looked out of the window again to see if I could the Chiffchaff, I saw another bird moving about strangely in the hedge, but it was moving differently from the Chiffchaff and was slightly bigger, this time it was a male Blackcap, I only recall seeing them in the garden about 3 or 4 times, the last time must have been about 10 years ago. Next I went outside to put some rubbish in the bin and looked up to see a Red Kite flying overhead, we've seen them around more and more over the last 5 years, usually in spring or September/October time Finally, in the afternoon, the Chiffchaff came back and I got a really good view, a beautiful looking bird, very yellowy. Like I said, a few nice moments.

Irish fans today " we probably won't beat England but as long as Rice or Grealish don't score ....."

2 ex Leeds players on the score sheet for Bournemouth. Everton though, confidence must be so fragile.

Eddie the Eagle springs to mind.

Thanks for that, I knew that BBC had got highlights but didn't know that Amazon had got a game.

The handing over ceremony has to be the best ever, worth staying up for.

Looks like an episode of Doctor Who at the moment

Who's expecting Mr Bean to pop up at the back of this orchestra.

I don't know who funds the British rugby sevens team, but I remember hearing a couple of years ago that the English Rugby Union were vastly reducing funding for the 7s set up.

Yeah, its a standing joke

Its incredible that we didn't qualify a women's 4 x 100 team for London 2012, since then we've medaled in 2016, 2020 and 2024, and 4 out of the last 6 world championships, but you're right, they missed a glorious chance to win gold here.

Thats the spirit , lets rank the medals like the Americans do

Don't forget Amber Rutter in the shooting, gold medal shoot off, she was judged to have missed her target when the video clearly shows she hit it, there's so many fine margins which can go for or against you. Italy had 20+ 4th place finishes. Laura Kenny has been getting a bit of stick, at the start of tack cycling she predicted 8 gold medals for us
