Just been watching the climbing! Gold medal for Toby Roberts who is only 19, beating the favourite Japanese climber who is only 17!

Well done to the British lad for winning "bouldering" - which is not building a rockery against the clock, but instead climbing a wall which has 'boulder' shapes on it.

Silver in the women’s Madison. I don’t know how they dare race like that. I thought we were totally out of it then next moment, we were second.

Michael Johnson not best pleased with the US relay performance. Canada win Gold.

I enjoy that, Pearl. I shall have to record the finals tomorrow, I had forgotten all about it.
Bronze in the diving! It was so tense I could barely watch, and it was an unexpected medal too.
Bad news on the medal table though, we are behind France, ☹️.

The medals themselves are apparently of poor quality and are tarnishing within a week.
Enjoying the cycling as I make my tea.

That Men's Madison was insane! Even for a Madison!
The Spanish rider made me laugh, insisting he's fine while his eyes are spinning in his head. 😄

Silver in the artistic (synchro) swimming! Have we ever won anything in that before? Amazing. The girls are daughters of two women who used to be a synchro pair.
