Welcome home ladies and gents, you gave the rest of the world (minus the States) one hell of a beating and made our small, yet perfectly formed, nation proud. :smilin:

Genuinely lovely stuff. Really enjoyed these Olympics. Roll on Tokyo! :more beer:

Poor Lynsey - she was only being honest and I totally agree with her.
