    I caught a bit of the swimming this morning and it was very quiet but I don't think it had been intentionally muted.
    Good point, the only crowd they showed was the winning team cheerleaders, all very odd!
    Dry books of tactics are beneath the notice of a man of genius, and it is a known fact that every British officer is inspired with a perfect knowledge of his duty, the moment he gets his commission; and if it were not, it would be sufficiently acquired in conversaziones at the main-guard or the grand sutler's.

    Now watching it on BBC,best seat in the house (my house),great competition,and I get see all the finals,with slow-mo replays,so I consider myself rather fortunate,I didn't shell out shit loads of dosh,on tickets!
