    I feel sorry for anyone not enjoying Katie's olympic journey, these days don't come around very often, I for one will be enjoying all of the singing, jingoism, interviews and endless replays. Those who don't are very sad indeed.

    +1 and hopefully in 20 years time I'll be able to tell the kids I remember the day Katie Taylor won gold in the first ever games were women were allowed to box.

    To be fair, he does look a bit ''cerebrally challenged''.

    Meanwhile on RTE: 'we will back with a commercial break after this short break'.
    They should spend some of their advertising revenue on their I.T. department.

    Was the same the other day I think it was Friday last week I checked it and it had crashed too, alls I got was a picture of Bosco with the text saying, Sorry our website seems to be temporarily unavailable.

    I expected it today tbh but half hoped they might have sorted it. I am surprised they managed to show it on TV and didnt mess that up somehow.

    She must have seen a gash of the same name ;)

    Still laughing at her 'performance' on Epsom Derby weekend, "Bonfire this" & "Bonfire that" it was nauseating until Camelot went past and farted in his face :D
