we win another gold in the paddling.

Every time the commentators talk about paddling I have an image of people at the seaside, trouser legs rolled up and a hankie on their heads...

Really pleased for the women's hockey team but I wish they, in general, would risk more one-touch play. Bearing in mind that I know fark all about the game, it looks like it could be made better by a less clunky and conservative approach.

One touch hockey? Good luck with that! The ball is heavy as f*ck and generally comes at you like a rocket. Not an easy thing to control.

The clothes to be worn at the closing ceremony by the British team have been made in Accrington. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-37120326

You're probably right as I know nothing about the game really. I'm still going to email Pep Guardiola to see if he can be persuaded to forego a few million and introduce tippy tappy hockey.

It's hard to keep track of as the rules change regularly. Sticks and rock hard balls are pretty much the only constant, as my shins will testify.

At last, a sport I reckon I might still be able to win a medal in. Who wants to join me?
