    That race was harder than it looked - they really had to battle to get past Germany, it was far from an easy win.

    The stand in doesn’t get to stay and watch the race? Harsh!

    George ignored Jacqui's question, can he not hear her?

    George has a very inner ear problem where he can only hear voices at the exact frequency of George Hamiltons voice

    Well done to the lads!

    As someone who gets a Vietnam War esque flashbacks when I see a concept 2 rower in the gym. I'll never know how they do it.

    That was some race for the lightweight women's doubles sculls : almost a four way photo finish, with the other two crews close behind

    The real drama was in the women's race.

    Do they play Oireland's Call as the anthem?

    Yes it's overkill, lots of indoor sports now abandoned them.

    Bit incongruous to just see the trucks just motoring away on the bridge behind the whole time.

    That's bloody brilliant hearing the anthem and seeing the flag flying highest.

    Puspure had a terrible start, doesn't seem to be recovering it too well past half distance.
