The less people talk about Burley, the better. He doesn't merit a soapbox.

Watching this I can't help but be reminded of the conversations I've had about the epic amounts of action that get underway in the athletes' village. Apparently they get through something like 100,000 condoms...

All this national pride is making me think we should reclaim some of these little countries which have gained independence.

apparently (according to the commentary earlier) the muslims have been given leave to skip ramadan and make up for it later so they don't go weak from lack of food.

and isn't zara phillips in the gb team?
