Proud!!

Well we won it and we delivered it like it was a walk in the park Just wanted to say how proud I am to be from this island. I don't say that very often, if at all most of the time.

Thank you to Team GB for giving me the best sporting fortnight of my life. It's been emotional. I've laughed, I've cried and I've screamed endlessly at the telly. I'm not going to single out any of the winners as they were all fantastic. I am going to single out the Great British Public though for being superb, but most all for allowing us normal people to claim our flag back from the right wing nutters!! Wear it with pride!

+1 to all of that. Gold, silver, bronze, 5,6 or 7th they all winners to me.
I've had tears more than once watching us show the rest of the world how to put on an Olympics properly and how to win medals like a mofo.

Yes, but I was proud before the games. We are one of the greatest nations on the planet. Always have been.
