Well what can I say lads and lasses. It's been emotional. As one very proud Londoner who's made a home here in Ireland, I can honestly say this had been my favourite boards thread ever! Whilst every gold medal for team GB has been a joy, I don't think I will ever be as proud as you lot have been of a talented young lady from Bray. Go on ya good tings.

Thanks but it was all God's work tbh.

Letdown of an ending....

It was a great thread, it defo enhanced the games for me and it was kept nice and conversational. Some great contributions.

Noooooo. Its still part of London 2012.

I'd like to put a shout out to all our Trolls who made our Tollympic contest so enjoyable. Unfortunately none of you actually made the finals so me, Irish -stew and Clumustard are robbing your medals, flogging them at the pawn shop and getting pissed with the proceeds. Which won't be very much since they were made from copper, tin and tinfoil.

Scráib

Sin é anyway. Good ending ceremony, enjoyable to watch made moreso because of the running commentary of this thread

Dammit, I already have post-olympics depression!

cgpg5

Fair play to all, They'll enjoy their week fair play to them...

Screw that they'll be in the pool at 6am in the morning preparing for 4 years!!!

Yes what's your point? IMO Muse are absolute drivel - but hey each to their own

Canadians in denim jackets. They always are at the forefront of style those lads.

Well guys it's been fun, great thread. Factual, lots of banter. Great games, delighted it all came off well for London and Britian. And for all our medalists and competitors you did us proud.

It'll be a fresh thread as this will hit 10,000 by the time it starts!

I kinda hope Istanbul wins the games - would be a big challenge but a worthy one.

I think you'll find it was our own Kenny Egan that started that trend.

The Olympic guy said see you all in Rio, I'm saying he won't put you up for the games, keep up trout!

Nice song here!

Hah in fairness I think it's obvious none of here would be either! Better chance then you I'd say though, I'd be at my peak at 22 by then

For me;

Athlete of the games: David Rudisha

To win the 800m destroying the WR, and the eight place finisher in a time that would have won the last three Olympics!
