Yeah, but she wasn't REALLY naked was she
Did you know she has a girlfriend?
Come on then, let's have a pic of her as well.
I'm surprised...I read an interview with her saying she keeps a guy in reserve when she's not in competition and fancies a bit, adding he knows it's not boyfriend-girlfriend situation but he doesn't complain.

Oh, doesn't she look different here
Ever since she did the sexy photoshoot for Observer Sports Monthly she seems to have dropped the bins - she's well short-sighted and is actually sponsored by Oakley Prescriptive Eyewear, or at least was as she seems to be wearing lenses.

Minnie the Minx- there was a lengthy replay this afternoon, prime frigging time on the BBC.
I left messages for you all over the boards to watch it!
I didn't log on 'til nearly 3.00pm, and it wasn't on one of the terrestrial channels
Why Romero is aces!
Just before she rolled out for the final, coach Dan Evans whispered news from the rowing regatta that her erstwhile colleagues from Athens in the quadruple scull had finished runners up in the most important race of their lives.
The news was “gutting” but also sharpened Romero’s competitive instincts. One of the reasons she tore herself away from rowing and put herself through the mill of learning an entirely different sport was that she wanted to be in total control of whether or not she won an Olympic gold medal.
“It’s pretty incredible. I’m so proud of myself. I wanted a gold. I wanted to be a champion. Now I’ve put my mark down.”
[When she beat Wendy Houvenagel] Rebecca Romero became the first British woman to win Olympic medals in two sports, and only the second Briton ever to do so...
Taa daaaaa!
