Hope the closing ceremony is as interminable as the opening one.

All the teams get back on the boats and have to pootle back up the river.

Enjoyed how Hassan has spent this entire race hanging slightly behind the front group. Hope she has a quick finish in her

One time I put my knee out playing football and the ref carried me off, it was extremely embarrassing for one and agonising as the one thing I didn’t want was to be moved with my leg dangling around
