That's what I was thinking, we got 50-odd then. But I think they included things like tug of war and cricket, which was just us against the French.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostComment

Wasn't there pigeon shooting as well? And the standing long jump.Originally posted by MarillionFan View Post
I could look it up but I'll guess there weren't many competitors from exotic places like USA.Comment

Anyone see that flob?
After Mo Farah crossed the line and lay on the floor, we were on the edge of our seats as he rolled towards that big dollop of white flob that a fellow competitor had just spat onto the track.
He never saw it but thankfully he stopped rolling just in time and missed it by inches.Last edited by Doggy Styles; 5 August 2012, 07:43.Comment

Murray is destroying Federer - double break in the first and second set.
But with Roger, it's never over until the final point - he has a habit of needing about an hour to wake up in the big finals.Comment

Murray is killing Federer - a break and 2 sets up now.
He's playing as if he has to finish off this game quickly so he can win the 2nd gold later.Comment
