We in the UK have 40 in total so far (17 Gold) but don't have nearly as many Athletes as in for example the USA and China, or even Australia. So looking at it that way we are doing EXCEPTIONALLY good this time! (regardless of what the Oz's think of us lol sour rapes Wolf?LOL ) My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Thank goodness the footie seaon is here again, and my lovely Sunderland are starting to show some form in the Premiership. The only sport that interests me, especially now we're starting to get something vaguely resembling a team together! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
