It was a done deal.

Barring shark attack, they had it in the bag.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Hurray! Well done them. First rowing gold for women ever, I believe, as well. Fab

 

[ruffneck23]

Good Girls !!

did they beat any records while they were at it ?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Barring shark attack, they had it in the bag.

Pfft, one of many possible scenarios, one of many.

And I think you'll find they just said they didn't think they had it until they crossed the finishing line

 

[Corax]

They could have smartened themselves up a bit though. Bit of lippy & mascara, y'know.

Just goes to show I'm a better judge of these things than they are then.

Steve Redgrave also called our boat's rowing 'shit' at Henley

 

[gaijingirl]

I've swum competitively several times in that lake - very emotional to just watch that now. Amazing result! Also the teacher, in particular, is a real inspiration.

Everyone's a critic.

 

[Lord Camomile]

They don't even get a fucking podium?! Outrage! Scandal!

 

[Corax]

The bouquets have got 'traditional British herbs' in them as well, so they'll be able to whip up a nice casserole for their fellas when they get home.

 

[5t3IIa]

Awww, the chins start wobbling when the anthem comes on

 

[Lord Camomile]

Heather Glover has a pretty impressive scar on her right inner forearm

[mrs quoad]

And that's how to blow up.

Curses! Germans and Canadians just turned on the power there, very impressive.
