I am of course supporting the Irish although nothing to brag about as of yet! A 4th place in the canoeing and a boxer in the final so far so not too bad I suppose! Hopefully we'll get at least one gold medal! Supporting the british mixed doubles pair in the badminton! They had a good win against the second seeds! ;D

I am happy that Croatia has got 1 bronze for shooting, which is totally unexpected!

I work in The National Aquatic Centre in Dublin and I have a good background in swimming - Michael Phelps is an outstanding swimmer and I sincerely doubt one of his stature will be seen again! Dont forget he's only a youngster still so 2012 will be another opportunity to increase that gap between him and all the other great olympians - i doubt he will ever be caught!! :)

Mark Spitz seems to be good, but can he beat Bruno? That is the question:8

Good Luck to Alain Bernard, Swimming Champion, from France, and leaving in my town. His training center is at 5 min walking from my home. He got already 1 gold medal and will try to get his second one tomorrow morning during the 50m sprint.
